Right, so I've got this 5 year old who is amblyopic, but with a good chance of improvement with specs. He's quite small for his age, and some of his facial characteristics are a little unusual for a child of his age.
He's got quite a small face (currently in a 39x18 round shaped kids frame), literally no bridge of a nose and a short length to bend.
The main problem we're having is that no matter what we seem to do, they still slip a bit. He's having to push them up with one finger every now and then, and that's really getting on his nerves and making him not want to wear his glasses!!
So far I've fitted a cable conversion (with as tight a fit as possible), strap bridge, skull fitted the arms of the frame...and now I'm at a loss. If I tighten the cables, then the lenses just 'smoosh' into his eyes, so thats not an option...
Help me Optiboarders, you're my only hope!!
Tom
