I have mentioned in several blog posts before about how affected I was when I saw my elder son’s myopia test results. In fact, I am still upset till this day. As if I have not made enough effort to remind him about proper eye care, he is starting to show signs that his myopia condition has worsen. *sigh*

His first pair of glasses were purchased last year when he entered Primary School. The memory of visiting the optical shop and choosing eyeglass frames for kids with him is still fresh in my head. I still remember how torn he was between the blue frame and the one which we bought. In the end, he chose the white frame with orange coloured ear rest because he remembered no one in his class had that colour. Oh well, kids at their age like to stand out and be different. A growing stage where they want to shine. *smile*

All was well, till half a year ago. He started to watch television programmes with his head slightly down and eyes rolled upwards whenever he is without his glasses. Yes, we allowed him to do without his glasses whenever he feels that it was not necessary. We may have made a wrong move. Now, the number of times he needs his glasses have increased tremendously. With that frequency on the rise, the rough handling of the glasses by my 7 year old boy is also wearing out the frame rapidly.

If this continues, I can visualize us going to the optical shop again to buy a new pair of glasses or simply going online to click here and there for more options on eyeglass frames for kids.
