Help! Extremely Farsighted 3 Yr Old Posted: 06-17-05 19:47pm
My daughter is 3 1/2. She was developing
a lazy eye. The Dr. Diagnosed her as
extremely farsighted with one eye worse
than the other. She was a +6 and +8. It
seemed strange yet we got a second opinion
with the same results. She has been able
to read numbers and letters with no
problem. She can even write some letters
with out and visual strain to see. We got
the glasses today and she said shesee with
them on. She keeps looking over the top
of them. Does it take a while to adjust
to the glasses and that is why she is
having a hard time seeing with them. She
keeps getting very frustrated and upset.
Also... If anyone has any suggestions for
getting a 3 yr old to wear an eye patch...
Please pass them on. So far bribes
haven't worked.
