New Contacts!

After weeks (seems longer) of contact issues with Maggie that ended in red eyes, crying, and difficult contact removal, we got a fresh pair of lenses today and Maggie seems to be accepting them so far. The last few days she has been wearing only glasses because it became completely impossible to keep the old set of lenses in her eyes without causing her a lot of discomfort. We hope new lenses will solve the problem, and at over $500 per set we hope our insurance continues to pay for them if we need a new set every 2-3 months :)

Maggie's prescription is +26. To give you something to compare to, her dad (who can hardly walk from one side of the house to the other without glasses or contacts) wears -5.

I can not even imagine what +26 is like. hope she is adjusting to the new ones.
