Friday morning Grace had a check up with her eye doctor. As you may know, Grace has one reeeally bad eye. Her right eye. We didn't discover this until kindergarten, and ever since then it's been a battle to get her to wear the eye patch on her good eye to strengthen her bad eye.
And I mean a battle.
She was determined NOT to work on it for a long time.
In August, the doctor scared her straight. He said she was getting old enough that if we didn't fix it now, she'd never get better vision. To make his point he told that her vision was so bad in the right eye that if she ever lost her good eye she would be legally blind with the one eye. That means NO DRIVING. Well, that did it. She has worn her patch consistently since then.
Friday was the big day. We would see if all her hard work paid off.
IT DID! She still some work to do on distance vision (it's 20-80 right now) but she can see 20-25 up close!
Here she is waiting for the doctor. She refused to pose for me. (Yet another example of her stubborness).
CONGRATULATIONS GRACE!
