My little geek *gets all teary eyed*

We picked up projectmothra's reading glasses today. He plopped down in the middle of the living room to test them out. (The book he is reading is "The Twits" by Roahl Dahl.)

Behold the cute.

It's cute, yes, but...

I'm just curious--he's got reading glasses at such a young age?

Yes. Bizzare, huh? I ended up taking him to a vision specialist despite him testing at his physician at 20/20, because his OT saw him having some serious eye tracking problems, and over the course of the testing they noticed he was already developing reading eyestrain. (yes, he's probably going to get therapy for the tracking too, but I don't know when that will happen.)

I know kids this age with general-use glasses, but this is the first time I've ever seen a kid this age with reading glasses! Then again, I don't know that many 4 year olds reading as much as he does, either.
