Measure twice, cut once

 


Rachel has been wearing glasses for about a year and a half and she is on her third prescription. We got her new glasses this past summer and lately, she's been saying that she can't see clearly. I took her in to get her eyes examined (precipitated by her glasses getting broken!) and her eyes have changed (gotten worse) significantly since the last check-up six months ago.

I like how the doctor has each person wear their new prescription for about twenty minutes before they place the order for the glasses to be made. Rachel looks like an alien in this picture, but testing the new lenses really makes sense. After reporting that she can see quite clearly without problems, we ordered the glasses and got them back within a couple of hours.

Rachel doesn't know the song, but she's been dancing around the house, "I can see clearly (now the rain is gone)!" She doesn't mind wearing glasses at all. I'm just afraid that she has inherited my side of the family's bad eyesight. (Michael's eyes are fine . . . he's inherited my side of the family's weak and crooked teeth!)
