WEARING EYEGLASSES PROPERLY

[Guest guest]

ok people i so need help here.. Lynden has been wearing glasses since he was 5..

he is now

10 and i cannot stand how his glasses fall down to his nose so he looks like a

little old man,

he always lets them sit at the end of his nose so he is always looking OVER his

rims to see

me.. grrrr i know its because he has no bridge but there has to be something we

can do

HELP!!! short of buying him a strap (he is going to grade 6 so i can;t do that)

i don't know

what to do... what glasses do you wear?? recommend??

>OMG, the same things happen to my daughter who is 14 yrs old and she has been

wearing glasses since she was 3. I have asked why she where them low and she

says it is because it is more comfortable there.

Naomi's nose bridge is probably the same as Lynden's - absent!

Each of the arms of her spectacle frame ends in a flexible C-shaped loop

which grip her ears much better than the arms with the gentle kink in

the ends. This helps to keep her spectacles firmly in the right position

without the need of a nose bridge. I'll get a photo taken and send it

over if you're keen to see what I'm talking about.

And thanks for remembering us in Korea too Tonikka!

Hey Tonikka,

How are you? Thanks for the well wishes : )

Naomi's frames are here:

Frame/0C4D9A918A85C08F41256A77002723DD

It's Model 155545. She's had the same model since she was 2.5 years old, just

changed

sizes. They have it in blue too.... ; p

This site has a 'try on the specs' function. Have not used it before, maybe u

can try.

Hugs to Lynden.

Cheers,
