Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 , I used "velcro" eye straps. (like a sports strap, only velcro is used instead) They are great because you can "cut" the velcro to fit the size head that is needed for the straps to do the job. It "snuggles" up the glasses and it is nearly impossible for the child to pull them off. Take care!

My grandfather, mother, and 25yo brother all came to visit. It was the first time that my grandfather or brother had seen the boys. I was so worried that my grandpa would never get to meet them as he is 86yo and lives 10+ hours away. He had been so worried about Will so I am so glad he was able to see him. I am putting a picture of them all in our album on the site. He kept saying oh look, he's doing X, Y, or Z. I think it pleased him to no end to see how well he does. Just the first chapter of Will changing opinions. My mother had come when they were born so it was neat for her to see how much they had grown. We also had a f/u for will's eyes. It turns out that he has significant astigmitism(sp?) and he gave us a rx for glasses. My 5yo needed glasses when she was 13mo so I am familiar with the whole ordeal but Will's ears don't fit in the wrap around cable ear pieces and I KNOW he will not leave them alone so how am I going to keep them on his head????? Any thoughts? mom to (5), (2) Will(DS) and Jake (7 1/2 months)More pictures of our kids:http://www.pbase.com/urriegrl/multiplesds More pictures of our kids:http://www.pbase.com/urriegrl/multiplesds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Joyce, That is a great idea. My daughter Mercede just started wearing glasses this year and isn't doing so well. She did well at first with the sports strap until she figured how to take it off! I'll have to try the velcro. Where did you find them?
