dilemma:

Hi


You may go to this website eyecollege.com.

I still cannot tell if it is effective coz my gal only starts using 3 weeks ago, have to use for at least 3 months. You can call this lady, her name is Rain Su, she will be in a better position to advise you. She had been very patient with me as I asked her a lot of questions before I decide to buy.

[quote=\"dilemma\"]Hi

My gal just went to HPB last month and she has to be on glasses. Her reading is 250 per eye. You will be given a reading by the optometrist in HPB and you just need to bring the reading to any optical shop, no need to have eye tested again.

We went to Optical 88 and made a pair of glasses for $120. Later, when we shop around, we realise Spectacle Hut selling cheaper and nicer children's frames. You may want to go have a look.

I also bought a Eye Relax machine for her, hopefully can reduce her power......it's quite expensive, around $624 if you are a Popular Member.......

Hi,

Just came back from the HPB refraction clinic this afternoon. Right eye 100 degree; left eye ok. Does anyone know whether is 100 degree considered serious or just slightly myopic?

Hi dilemma, what's an Eye Relax machine? How does it work? Has it been effective so far? Thanks.

[/quote]Thanks, dilemma. Did you buy this from Popular?

I bought from Energie, they are the agent for this machine. Have to use every day, one eye 8 minute, so both eye around 16 minute. Energie provides quite good aftersales. They will assess my gal again 3 months later. Hopefully this machine works for my gal. She is complaining nose painful due to weight of glasses.......sigh.......

Chanced upon this article about using TCM to address early myopia in children

Has anyone tried acupuncture or TCM for early myopia?

my P1 has got a referral letter to go to some School Health Clinic Refraction Centre for further eye checkup

Sigh... my P4 son's eyesight has worsened from 75 to 150 in just 1 year. He's still pretty stubborn about reading in dim places. :stupid:

There's a miracle known as Lasik these days

[buds]

AAH yesss... Lasik ...

Been thinkin' about it myself...

There has been known side effects
though few. Think it's worth the risk?

[KingRascal]

My husband and I had lasik done and we are satisfied customers


Anyway, my son knew about this procedure and once when I told him to look after his eyesight....he replied saying that he could go to the clinic where I had \"eye operation\" done to correct eyesight!!!! His last eyesight test in K2 last year also show slight degree...

I tend to suspect the classroom's white board is one of the culprits.

I have also given up the nice warm lights that most homes tend to install to make the rooms look cosier and modern. My whole house is lit with conventional white lights...though I must acknowledge that the rooms look boring at times. I suspect the current modern lightings may be one of the culprits too for the high poor eyesight rate of Singapore children.
