JT's Eye Exam


At the suggestion of JT's teacher, we took him to get his eyes checked yesterday. I didn't think there was a problem because he had been screened at school and nothing was noted. However, it was obvious the moment the eye test started and JT couldn't even read the largest line on the eye chart.

It turns out he is nearsighted and will need to wear glasses. Fortunately, right now he is excited about wearing glasses and isn't the least bit worried. I hope it stays that way. Of course, the novelty will wear out quickly. I started wearing glasses at 6 and I know what a big responsibility it will be for him. But, the doctor said his sight will be so much better, we probably won't have a problem getting him to wear them.
