glasses for my 6 yr old

glasses for my 6 yr old

my son had a eye test yesterday after the school nurse said she thought there was a problem the optometrist said he has a stigmatism and short sighted and he definately needs glasses. Should i get them or should i go see a pediatric opthomoligist???

Dear milkshakebabe72,

I would recommend that you follow your instincts.  If you feel comfortable that your son had a complete eye examination including dilation, I would get the glasses. If you do not, I would seek care from a pediatric eyeMD.
