I've looked through some older threads about flexible glasses and a couple people had solo bambini, and I've seen another type called Miraflex... does anyone know how to actually get some in the UK? Can I get them mail order with my son's current frame size and prescription?
He's had to wear glasses since just before he turned 2, and now at 4.5 has started finally keeping them on for enough time to make a difference! Trouble is that we're on the north coast of Scotland, have only the one optician and his new prescription with wire frames have spent more time broken than on him! The first time he "only had them off for 2 seconds" at school and managed to twist the entire frame... optician ordered another frame. Now he's come back from respite with both ends chewed through to the metal, so they're too sharp to put on! Grrrr! I know he's heavy handed with them, but our optician said they can't order flexible frames, and now I'm lost as to how to get some!
Help, please!
