suzeanna Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 I think it's normal for a baby to lose a bit before they start to gain, but I suppose if he's very small to start with, it's more of a worry. Hope all will be well, must be worrying for them. I know my daughter in law had the health visitors round daily to check her twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Thanks all, hoping he will be o.k as I won't ever have my own I intend to have this little pair in my life for as long as I can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Wishing little one all the best, hope he puts on weight. My varifocals are still pants. Pushing on with them at home, still don't feel safe when out and about. But am suspecting it was a costly mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooster Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Varifocals usually have a 30 day trial period Owl as some patients can't tolerate them. I'd try for a bit longer, then go back to your optician. Your optician will be able to send the lenses back to the lab for credit as you are a first time wearer (and don't let them fob you off - all labs do this!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Owl it took me AGES to get used to my varifocals but I did and I like them now. At first I would go dizzy when I looked down and then back up, I tripped over things because I would look down and things would be fuzzy. I persevered, because I was unaware of the info Jayne has given above, and I adjusted to the lenses. I hope, whichever way you chose to go with them, that you get sorted with them to your satisfaction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Thank you so much Jayne, that has really cheered me up. I thought it was ££s down the drain, and I really love the frames. They are kind of useful in the house when I alternate between reading stuff like cooking instructions and looking across the room. Also good while eating, which normally I take my distance glasses off for. And checking on the tropical fish. If the lenses dont' work out I will have them as an extra pair of distance glasses. The manager saw me herself, and knows about the dyspraxia issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooster Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Well if they work in the house, keep with them and then just have distance glasses for out and about. Over time you'll probably get used to them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
