Look, Ryan! Look!

Look, Daddy!  A Hawk!
Look, Ryan!  Do you See Where the Hawk Landed in that Tree?
No, Daddy.  I Don’t See the Hawk Sitting in the Tree.
There, Ryan!  There!
Where, Daddy?  Where?
Maybe we need to See if you Need Eye Glasses to See Far-Away, Ryan?
We can Stop at the Eye Doctor’s Office on our way Home from Myakka State Park this Afternoon.
 
Here we are, Ryan.  This is the Eye Doctor’s Office.
Let’s see if they have Time to Look at your Eyes.  

 
Hello, Ryan.  Would you Please Come In and Sit Down in this Chair?
Oh–!  What a Nice Bunny Chair, Ryan!
 
You’re Scared… aren’t you, Ryan?
Don’t Worry, Ryan.  Everything will be O.K.  I’m Doctor Susan.  Your Eye Examination will not Hurt.
 
Here– Let me Look Into your Eyes with this Little Light.  
I can see that your Beautiful Brown Eyes are Fine.  No Scratches and Nothing Else Wrong.
 
Now– let’s Put Some Eye Drops in your Eyes, Ryan.  
The Eye Drops will Relax your Eyes so that we can do Some Vision Tests.
We will see How Near and How Far Away your Eyes can Focus, Ryan.
Your Daddy says that you Could Not See a Hawk that was Far Away.
Look Up at Me, Ryan– Don’t Blink   ..!!

That wasn’t Painful… just a *Surprise* when the Eye Drops go in your Eye.
We use this Machine, Ryan, to Measure the Strength of your Eyes.  
Each Eye is Different and this Machine Shows us if you will Need Eye Glasses.
Then it Shows us what Strength of Eye Glass you may Need for Each Eye.

See– From Your Side, Ryan, it does Not Look So Big and Scary…
…just Two Little Glass Lenses to Look Through!

Please Look Through the Lenses and Read this Chart, Ryan.  
Read it from the Top to the Bottom.
Can you See the Letters on All of the Lines?
How About the Last Line of Letters?  The Really Small Letters?

It’s Good that you Know your Alphabet Letters, Ryan.
But if you Didn’t, Doctor Susan has a Chart that Has Pictures.
 
P1030236
Ryan– you could not Read the Last Line of Really Small Letters.
Your Eyes are Very Good, Ryan.  They are Healthy and Fine. 
All this Eye Exam Shows us is that you can Not See Things that are Very Far Away.  That is O.K.
You can Get Eye Glasses to Wear that will Allow you to See Perfectly!
Many People Wear Eye Glasses, Ryan.  Your Mommy just Came In for an Eye Test last Month
and she Got Some Eye Glasses to Help her Read.  You can get your Eye Glasses where your Daddy 
does– from Mr. Dan Schmidt.  You will Like Him… he is Quite Nice.  Good Luck, Ryan.  
Very Nice to Meet you.

P1030085
Oh, Look, Ryan!  Your Sister, Pinkie, would Love these Pink Eye Glass Frames!
 
P1030093
How Funny, Ryan… I think that they are saying that you *Toucan*
(too can) Enjoy Eye Glasses!
 
P1030088
Don’t be Afraid, Ryan.  Getting Eye Glasses Fitted does not Hurt!
 
P1030081
Look at this Eye Chart, Ryan.  It Looks Similar to the Chart at Dr. Susan’s Office.
 

 

P1030090
My Eye Exam wasn’t Bad, Daddy.  It Did Not Hurt!
That’s Right, Ryan.  And Nothing Scary Happens Here when you get your Eye Glasses Fitted. 
 
P1030094
Let’s Check your Eyes, Ryan.  Look Straight Ahead and I’ll Cover One Eye.
 
P1030095
Now, Look Straight Ahead and I’ll Cover your Other Eye.
Your Eyes Look Fine, Ryan.
 
P1030101
Let’s Try-On this Pair of Glasses, Ryan.
 
P1030098
They Match your Hair Nicely, Ryan.
 
P1030099
First, we Measure your Pupil Height.
 
P1030100
Then we Measure your Pupil Distance, Ryan.
 
P1030103
If you Need them, you can even get Prescription Sun Glasses; Brown or Grey.
 
P1030105
Daddy.  I Like my New Eye Glasses!
They Look Great on you, Ryan!  I’m Glad that you are Happy with your New Eye Glasses!

    I went to a shop when G. Had her eyes tested once, i thought it was very interesting. She had them tested last week too but this time I stayed inside her bag.

    Your glasses look great Ryan! Our Papa wears glasses too, but he sometimes forgets where he put them, and he asks us to help find them, hehe.

    You look great in your new glasses Ryan. I sometimes wear glasses too.
    Both my mom and dad wear them. My dad needs them like you to see things far away. I think eyesight problems are bearetitary.

    Hi Ryan,
    My name is Alexander Mackenzie Bear (but you can call me Sandy for short). I live in Canada and am friends with Hammie and Jerry & Ben and Buttons too (wow… we have a lot of friends in common!). Alas – my human doesn’t wear glasses at the moment, so I guess that makes me the odd one out! I think your glasses make you look very educated and beary distinguished! I have a blog too… http://bearistabear.blogspot.com
    Please come and visit and drop me a line!
    Sandy
