Hey there,
I love this. My Son just got his glasses yesterday. For those of you who have experience how do you get your child to stop looking over or under the glasses?

Oh, I bet he’ll look great Jane! You’ll have to share a picture when the glasses come in. Welcome!

My son just turned 2. We just found out a couple of weeks ago that he has esotropia when his eye kept going crossed. We just ordered his glasses yesterday. We found som really different shaped glasses so hopefully he looks okay.

Your daughter sounds awesome, Amber! I’ve heard that some people have been able to ask optometry stores about looking in their catalogs and ordering frames that way – that gets a wider selection for you.

Thanks guys! I still the she is the most beautiful little girl in the world, I just want the glasses to reflect her sassy personality. They are so plain and even though she does very well keeping them on, she is constantly trying to look over them instead of through them. We tell her to look through her Siper Cool glasses and she being the sassy 3 year old she is says, “They dont even have poke-a-lee dots…not cool” and while it was really funny, its true, they fit her…but not her personality!

Hi Mrstomason – we have a fantastic eye glasses shop in Minneapolis that is just for kids. They have a great selection, and I’m starting to realize just how lucky we are to have them. Zoe’s frames in this post are from Grant – which last I checked, doesn’t sell online. We loved them, though, and I was really sad that we weren’t able to just get a larger pair of the same style more recently. If you happen to live in or near Minneapolis, it’s Glasses Menagerie.

But amomofelly is right, I’m willing to bet that your daughter will look adorable no matter which glasses she ends up with.

mrsthomason…. don’t worry, we had a choice of 1 of 1 and they had to re-order the cables that came back bright blue. Your daughter is probably SO cute, that the glasses you chose will look adorable on her!

Hi there, My daughters left eye started turning in a little over 2 weeks ago. They say she is very far sighted and we have her glasses ordered, but they are no where near as cute as your little ones are. Could you tell me where to go to find cuter ones? I got to choose from 3 pairs

I am glad I found your blog! I’ve enjoyed reading about your experiences as it is very close to my experience with my daughter’s strabismus and farsightedness and glasses / patching, starting at age 6 months. She is 13 months now.

[...] Cuteness chaser, from a blog called “Little Four Eyes.” I imagine (or would think, anyway) that not that many people’s toddler’s need glasses, but boy is her daughter cute. [...]
