DS has been diagnosed with a severe squint and poor eyesight in left eye. He's 2.5; prem birth.
We're heading back for the full eye test to gain a prescription for glasses and then discuss patch treatment as well. They've tentatively talked about surgery that can revert squint but got the impression that this isn't a normal course of treatment.
But in the meantime would love to hear your top tips for keeping the glasses on, avoiding them getting broken etc. Also where to buy glasses, best frames etc.
Am assuming the nhs voucher will cover only a proportion of the cost - anyone know how much you get? (personally wear glasses and a tad fussy and spend loads )
