My DS is 2.9 months and has got glasses this week due to a squint. According to the optician his actual prescription is quite mild. The longest I have got him to wear is about 5 minutes and usually he point blank refuses. He will wear them whilst he watches television but obviously I can't let him do that all the time. I guess that because his vision isn't too bad he doesn't see much improvement when he wears them. We have a sticker chart and he gets a little treat each day then I have wrapped some little toys for if he fills his sticker chart (7 days) but he's not that bothered about it. We go back to the orthoptist at the end of the month to see if there's any improvement otherwise probably surgery :-( help!
