Paige's Purple Glasses

After a year of suspecting something was not right with Paige’s eyes and seeing different doctors who dismissed her behaviors, we finally saw a pediatric ophthalmologist who confirmed that Paige is severely near-sighted.  One eye is -11.00 and the other eye is -13.00. The doctors are amazed it hasn’t impacted her development as she was likely born with this.  It makes me sad every time I look through her glasses as I just can’t imagine how she has seen the world up until this point.  Doctors say she will be a different child…more active and more talkative.  Wow…she is already our wild child!   She required special order lenses from Japan and she will cost us a small fortune, but I am so thankful that we know and that she can see now.  She picked out a very cool pair of purple glasses and is wearing them proudly.
