So, exactly one week after Lex got his 7th pair of new glasses, he went to the ophthalmologist again, and we found out that he needed a new prescription.
And you know what? That was okay.
The warranty that provided us with that 7th pair of glasses meant that we got them at zero cost, but they wouldn't remake them with a different prescription from the pair that were being replaced. So, no matter if we had used the warranty or not, we would have had to buy pair number 8.
Of course, Lex picked the exact same style frame again. Which is fine.
And now, pair number 7 are in the cupboard, waiting as a back-up for when he breaks pair number 8.
Sidebar: Lex tested at 20/30 at the eye doctor. Which is two lines worse than he was last time when he was 20/20. Boo. Hopefully the new prescription will help. He will keep wearing the eye patch for three to four hours a day for the time being. Also, he has been spending a lot of time in the pool without his glasses, and that might be a small factor. So I ordered him some prescription swim goggles as well.
He loves them. Apparently it is really nice being able to see while he is swimming. I don't know why it never occurred to me before that I should order him prescription swim goggles. They were pretty cheap online, to boot.
