Hi Ann, my name is Chris. I just wanted to let you know how awesome this site is. I’m an Optician from a Optical family. My mom actually ran a Children’s only dispensary for years, so kids and glasses have a special place in my heart. I fully plan on pointing any parent who expresses concern about their kids needing glasses to this blog. It’s truely fantastic. Thank you very much!

I’m so sorry your grandson has a cataract and has needed surgery so young. There are others here who have very young children with cataracts. You can see all of the stories here about cataracts http://littlefoureyes.com/category/cataracts/

You might also look at our list of blogs, quite a few are from families who are dealing with cataracts http://littlefoureyes.com/resources/blogs-about-childrens-vision/

I would also recommend the APHAKIC Support Group (http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/aphakic/) – a support group for parents caring for young children who have had cataracts. Or the PGCFA (Pediatric Glaucoma & Cataract Family Association) http://pgcfa.org/phpBB3/

Best to you and your family!

Try using a lanyard. That’s the best and really only thing you can do. They have the very stringy ones that you can sinch up to the back of her head. Believe me, they are gonna get broke. There is really nothing you can do about that. Your glasses should have a one year warranty on them. My optometrist knows my son all tooooo well. Good luck with the glasses and all that you are dealing with.

Just a fair warning about Walmart.. My son was prescribed +3.25 glasses to treat farsightedness and strabissmus when he was 26 months old. The original prescription was properly filled by Walmart. Over the course of the next year, he of course broke his glasses numerous times and they were replaced free of charge. When I took my son to his one year exam, my doctor informed me that his prescription at some point had been reversed to -3.25 by Walmart. Instead of his eyes getting better, they are now worse at +5. Just a word of caution to all you parents.

Hello! I am new here. A random lady on a random day approached me and handed me a card with the words “little four eyes” on it. I admit that it was a bit strange however, I am here now, months later and happy to be introduced! My daughter will be 3 end of February and has been wearing glasses since shortly after her 1st birthday.
