Maria’s vision therapist
Maria saw the vision therapist yesterday, which was the first time they have seen each other since Maria got her new glasses. The therapist was just shocked by how much more Maria uses her vision than before. I noticed that when she’s not wearing her glasses, she uses her vision much less than before. When she is wearing them, she often just sits there and pointedly looks around. Sometimes she will look at something, then tilt her head so she’s looking at it under the lenses, then tilt her head back to see it through the lenses. Obviously the glasses are working.
Sadly, we are losing the vision therapist soon. She is an early interventionist, meaning she handles kids only up to 3 years old. She’ll see Maria twice more, then bye-bye. I’m not sure what happens after that because Maria will still need home vision therapy.
