[quote=Anonymous]We went to the ophthalmologist because pediatrician referred us after his 2yo vision screen. Turns out he is nearsighted and has astigmatism. He doesn’t need glasses yet but will in a few years when he starts K. - He gets very limited screentime (that too only TV, not phone or iPad) and lots of outdoor time. Eats a very healthy diet with plenty of fish and vegetables - Both his father and I are near-sighted, and his father has astigmatism. But we weren’t diagnosed until our late teens despite regular doctor check-ups. Have the tests gotten more sensitive nowadays? - Is it the worst thing in the world if he doesn’t wear glasses when he starts K? Can we delay until he starts to have issues like not being able to see what’s written on the board? I know I will get flamed but my little boy is very handsome with beautiful eyes and I don’t want them to get covered up my glasses [/quote]
