My child doesn't need an eye test......do they?
I was speaking with a friend a few days ago and she was telling me about how her 8 year old son was having problems at school – with reading, concentrating, and was having some behavioural problems. I asked whether he had ever been to have his eyes tested and it turned out he hadn’t. In fact, she hadn’t even thought about it, despite having an older child who had had his eyes tested years before. I’ll be honest with you – I was shocked. Admittedly I’ve been wearing glasses since I was nine years old, so optometry is very familiar to me, even without Dane’s issues.
