I'm officially a 四眼姊 at K1

Never knew Rachel will have to wear spectacles at such a young age. She has always love carrots, blueberries & Gou qi zi. She basically eats them every other day. The news comes as a shock to us during her eye check scheduled in school during kindergarten 1. We’ve got a referral letter and were told to send her to the health promotion board for a more in-depth checkup. After which they confirm that her has Astigmatism at 175 degree each eyes. The optician told us that she has to start wearing spectacles to prevent further increase. I was in shock to hear such high degree at such young age and enquire further about the cause. The optician says that it is most probably in born as Astigmatism are usually cause by the shape of the eyeball reflecting the lights. In her case, the shape of her eyeball is different from normal therefore causing such high astigmatism. The optician however calms me down by saying that it would most probably stay this way and will not get any higher.  
Taking the letter from the health promotion board, we proceed to shop for a spectacle frame. I manage to persuade her to get the frame that I like best. And that mark the day that she is officially a 四眼姊 J
