[quote=Anonymous]Take your kid to Lenscrafter and let them pick out frames that they like. This is not a big deal. Ask your eye doctor about the eye drops/contacts for myopia. They have new technology that can help decrease the extent that the eye lengthens, I am sure I don't have the science 100% correct here, to limit the impact of the myopia. My kid is using the contact lenses. Both his parents have awful eyesight, the hope is that the contacts will help to diminish how bad his gets while he is growing. There are eye drops for people who can't handle contacts, soft lenses for day use, and hard lenses to sleep in that are all shown to reduce the change in the shape of the eye and limit the vision impact. I had a patch and eyeglasses in first grade back in the 1970's for a lazy eye and myopia. It happened back then, it happens today. Technology is better so treatment is better. [/quote]
