Glasses

Pope is going under anesthesia, once again, to have measurements taken of his eye for new glasses. The glasses will provide a lens, so Pope will be better able to focus on objects. While the opthamologist said Pope's vision will never be "normal" he should be able to see a lot more now.

As we've experienced with Pope's other glasses, that didn't have a prescription but were used for protection, Pope is very good at breaking glasses. We found a frame call Miraflex that are designed for kids. The frames are nylon and polymer, so they are flexible. The temples don't have hinges and there is a built in band on the back. Since the glasses can't be adjusted, the optometrist sent the frames home so we could make sure they were a good fit. They are dark blue frames and we think Pope looks handsome in them! We can't wait for his new glasses to be made! It will be wonderful for him to be able to see!
