Should 1-year old boy wear eyeglass?

Should 1-year old boy wear eyeglass?

Yesterday my son went through pre-medical examination and he doctor said he has to wear eyeglass untill 15-years old. Thus, doctor said if he won't wear eyeglass he will be skew eyed adn my son's one eye is +450 and another one is +550 (Doctor said that actually his eye is about +3, but higher eyeglass will be ok). I am very wondering because he looks very normal. My son's is now just 1 year and 1 month old. Please advice me. Thank you very much.

Yes if your son is 1 and that is his "refractive error" he needs glasses all the time. in fact he may need bifocals at some time. Be sure you "doctor" is a Eye MD ophthalmologist. Ideally a pediatric ophthalmologist
