Re: Is vision getting better?

Dear Concerned Parent,
By asking the question, "...is vision getting better", do you mean that her naked eye Snellen is improving from 20/60 towards 20/20?
Has the ophthamologist checked her visual acuity and reported it to you?
Best,
Otis

I have posted several threads about my 3 year old on this site(-10.5 but sees 20/60 without glasses). My question is that a year ago when I brought my daughter in to the pediatric opthalmologist he originally had her perscription at -12.50 each eye. He gave her a lighter perscription to start out with though(-10.00). About 3 months later she was -11.50 each eye. About 3 months later he had her at about -11.00 each eye. Then about 3 months later he had her at -10.50 each eye. Just recently when she went back she was -10. 25 in one eye and -10.00 in the other. The astigmatism has been about the same for all perscriptions. I was not at the last visit and would have asked him why its going down. I am not posting this in ANYWAY to start any controversy. We have not been doing ANY sort of vision therapy or trying to improve her vision in anyway, shape, or form. I was wondering if it made any difference that she has lenticular myopia or if because she is young maybe her lens could be changing still.
