Eyeglasses

By reflexes April 26, 2008  

We went to the optometrist to collect CN’s pair of eyeglasses today. After having been observed for about 9 months, her opthalmologist decided to put her on spectacles. It was a challenge looking for the right eyeglass frame for a 3-year old. We must have visited at least 10 optical shops before finding a fit at Merringtons Optometrists in Parramatta.

Anyway, it sure is an ‘ouch’ for us parents to see now both kids to be wearing specs. I’m sure any parent would feel the same. I’ve been telling our daughters, “if it’s possible, I’ll be glad to wear those eyeglasses instead of you!” Neither myself or my husband wears specs. The eye doctor told us that sometimes it does skip a generation or so.

Anyway, we are still thankful to the Lord that we were able to discover their condition early enough to allow for it to be corrected. God is good.

i know. ang hirap kaya magsalamin. my 2nd sis gothers when she was in elementary. my 3rds sis got hers when she was 4. i got mine in highschool. both of my parents are wearing specs. sana ma-spare din mga kids namin. di bale, marami naman silang blessings… like having you two for their parents. naks! :)
