My little guy tried to take a vision test at the doc today and it went poorly, even though I know he knows his letters! We have an appointment with a pediatric eye doctor next Friday, so hopefully we have some answers about his headaches. getjazzy on "Does your LO wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-glasses#post-2241061 Mon, 20 Jul 2015 15:41:24 +0000 getjazzy 2241061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My LO just got glasses for the first time and he's 2. We didn't have any indication he needed them, my optometrist just suggested we have his vision checked when we had him with us at our appointment around 8-10 months old. She discovered he had a lazy eye and requested to check on it every 6 months. It eventually resolved and just before his 2nd birthday, he was able to identify objects and images for her so she did a complete eye exam and discovered he needs corrective lenses. Not a shock, my DH did as a child too. She said that since we caught it early, it's highly likely that by 10 or so years old, he won't need them anymore. So far it has been ok, my DS likes to wear his glasses! It was a shock to me initially though. mrbee on "Does your LO wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-glasses#post-2241056 Mon, 20 Jul 2015 15:36:56 +0000 mrbee 2241056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes, our son got them around when he turned 5! It was affecting his school work...

So, we went into the pediatrician today and he seems ok neurologically, so we are trying to see if it is a vision thing. So, here's the question, does your LO (or niece/nephew/neighbor) have glasses? At what age did he or she get them? We are going to see a pediatric optometrist soon.
