Our active 1-year-old boy needs glasses (+2.00 diopters) to correct his farsightedness and a tendency to cross his eyes. The problem is that he pulls them off the second they go on.

We've tried 3/4-inch elastic, holding his arms, tape... He just struggles and cries. How do we get him to wear his glasses?

I tell the parents of my child patients to do whatever it takes, including bribes. Make sure the glasses are comfortable and as clean as possible. Usually youngsters like your son grow to accept their glasses in time.

I do feel it is super important to be persistent with him. Don't let him win this war, as his vision may be at stake. Good luck!
