Yesterday we took Ash to have her vision tested due to the fact she has had trouble seeing the board at school for quite awhile. She was put through a pretty extensive amount of testing that I hadn't expected.
The doctor put a numbing solution in her eyes so he could test the eye pressure. He then gave her eye drops to dilate her pupils to apparently check the retina and blood vessels.
Here she's waiting for the doctor to return with her results. Fortunately her eyes are very healthy from a structural standpoint. She is however nearsighted, which means she has trouble seeing things further away.. especially small words on dry erase boards. Ash found some really cute frames and I'm excited for her to get them in a week. She should only need to wear them while looking at the board or maybe watching television. She's happy about that!
Here's Raegan entertaining us while we wait. I think in the above picture she was talking with Ash about something embarrassing that happened at school
And the ride home.. Ash got these awesomely cool shades to wear home to protect her eyes until her pupils return to normal. (her least favorite part of the visit)
