I'm not sure from the information you gave me.  If he does need glasses that is not necessarily a bad thing.  Just be thankful that he has healthy eyes hopefully.

Dear mileydis,

I would recommend that you seek the care of an eyeMd or ask your eye doctor more questions so that you understand his/her recommendations.
