Do not mock the shoooooooes.

~sigh~

Luke's getting glasses. Wife described the condition, but I didn't catch the actual name. He's been seeing double.

Sheesh. Poor kid. Hope he doesn't break them too quickly.

Well, that's helpful at Christmas...

Hope he sees better and doesn't mind wearing the glasses.

Not strabismus, is it?

Heh...unfortunately, my family has had experience with just about every eye condition known to man, from simple nearsightedness up through color blindness and a disorder I can't seem to remember the name of...it's like the retina didn't mature. That's what Ben and Bill have, and it means they're basically legally blind.

I guess I'm lucky to just have amblyopia. Means I don't have depth perception, but I guess since I've never known different, it isn't a big deal.

Oh, and if it is strabismus, they usually grow out of it. My brother did. He doesn't even need glasses now, actually, since it was his ONLY problem - he's not nearsighted or anything.

At least now he won't shoot his eye out...
