I had a thought that perhaps we bought the same pair of glasses as one of her friends and maybe that's why she refuses to wear them but she confirmed with me that we didn't. I tried asking her in a roundabout way about her eye exam, and her body language told me she is annoyed and not willing to cooperate so I backed down.
There is a certain health issue I need to sort out with the doctor and then discuss with my husband if we can dedicate $200/year towards lenses for her. She needs to be able to see full stop. I have a laundry list of things in my home that could use that money but she needs her eyes, and Hashem will have to find a way for us to have what we need. |
I am very impressed that you were able to hear all the criticism and change tactics. Hashem should bless you and your family with good health and money to cover all your expenses.

If you would have read my posts from the very beginning, you would understand that I am asking my question because I recognize that my daughter cannot continue on this way. Did you really think I posted just so I can ignore the obvious solution? Did you think I never heard of lenses before?
I suggest you reread your posts.
I am going to buy my daughter the cute little colorful school supplies she likes because that's what awful rigid neglectful mothers do.

With all due respect a two minute assessment is reason not to trust. It never takes that quick

Op, how's your daughter? Did you make a decision or come up with a compromise?

Hi op,
I admit I didnt read the whole thread yet so excuse me if its been mentioned.
First of all has your daughter shown any interest in contact lenses?
Second, Have you looked into orthokeratology?
They are corrective lenses worn at night.
I wore lenses for years. With astigmatism.
Until after the birth of my last child just were not comfortable.
Every single type I tried.
And exhausted all the option.
Ortho K was the last resort.
Bh its worked amazingly.

In the US and never heard of this! I’ve been wearing glasses since I’m 8 years old and all my kids need glasses so I doubt it’s available here (yet) since I never heard of this.
