Mollie Meets Dr. Lum

The school suggested we have Mollie's eyes checked. Last week when I took her in for an ear infection they had her read the eye chart. Wow - really not good. So I worked with my new insurance company and had her added onto my vision plan. This morning she was so excited to go get her eyes checked. Really, she's been talking to us for a week about what kind of glasses we think would look good on her.

First stop was to look in the big machine to measure her prescription. Turns out her vision is really not that bad.

Next, in the exam room, Dr. Lum got to know Mollie and measured her on a poster. He likes to measure the kids each time they go in to visit to watch them grow.

Dr. Lum did a fantastic job keeping things relaxed and fun for both girls throughout the appointment. Mollie was very talkative (if you can imagine that).

We had Mollie try on several pairs of glasses; blue, pink, purple, wire rim and plastic frames. She preferred the plastic frames because the bridge across the nose was more comfortable. It's a little hard to see here, but the frames she loved the most are berry color. We'll get better pictures next week when her glasses come in.
