DD2 has been prescribed glasses for her long-sightedness. We picked them up today but she has absolutely NO interest in wearing them.
We are not beginners when it comes to glasses - I wear them for short-sightedness and DD1 has worn them, for long-sightedness, since she was 2.3yo (she is now 4.3yo and we have never has any issues with her wearing them, even the patch she has to wear for 3 hours a day.)
I was hoping that DD2's glasses would make such a difference that she would want to wear them (we think this is the case with DD1 who has a prescription of +7.5) but DD2 only has a prescription of +3.75.
Is there such a thing as a band or something that we can use to fasten DD2's glasses to stay on her head?
In the interest's of honesty, DD2 actually turned 2 today but it seems that there is a HUGE difference between getting a 1 year old and and 2 year old to do something they are not keen on. DD1 loves sticker charts but DD2 doesn't seem 'mature' enough for such things yet.
