on a personal note . . . my littlest one just got his first pair of glasses.
every now and then we would wonder if he was having a hard time seeing, but with his asperger's we never got a clear answer (probably because this is all he has known). he never squinted and rarely moved things closer to his face. last week i finally printed off an eye chart and measure 20 feet and had him try to read the letters. he had trouble reading two line down from the insanely large E!
thanks to a wonderful friend, she was able to help us get an appointment with a wonderful eye doctor this week. yesterday we went for his exam and discovered that he has a stigmatism and has trouble seeing closeup and far away . . . bless his heart.
he picked out these glasses (saying he looks like harry potter). when his glasses were ready, he looked all around and kept saying, "everything looks so close!"
