I'm not as lucky as u... Brought my DD for eye review checkup last week and she was diagnoised with myopia of 100 degree (left) and 50 degree (right).... :slapshead: All this while, she was diagnosed with only astigmatism and her degree was well-controlled too during K2.

... such a high degree shoot-up in 3 mths time is not normal definitely... :scared: :nailbite:

My son's myopia still 50-75 degrees, same as during mid-P1. But he had perfect eyesight during K2 which goes to show how fast kids' eyesight can deteriorate. If your dd's increasing by more than 100 degrees yearly, then perhaps it's time to get those Zeiss-type lens which is supposed to slow than the deterioration.

Of course as we found out (better late than never), regular outdoor activities helps a lot.

Did you find out how your DS get myopia? I am kind of worried for my DS after understanding that the current seating arrangement can affect their eyesight.

His CL T during P1 was very observant. She frequently gave me informal feedback with regards to ds’s performance in class whenever I met her when I go fetch ds in the evening. It was her who told me she noticed ds squinting.

It is okay to wear transition lenses in PH. Mine started to wear since P3. I know Taz’s dd already was wearing since P2 (now P5).

Does the sch provide eye review test or we shd check go poly to request for eye check ? i’m slightly worried cos my ds loves to read in the dark though he got perfect eyesight in K2, maybe it’s time to check since now holiday ?

Too late liao, we've already got the normal lens.

I hope I don't have to get ds another specs for ds in the near future which means that his condition would have stablized.

For kids younger than 7 yrs old, you need to go to an optometrist for an eye-check before the optician is allowed to sell you any glasses.

Now kids in pre-school do have a yearly check-up conducted in school. Unsure about primary schools.
