The Many Faces of Luke

Luke's been wearing glasses since he was twenty months old and he is now on his fourth pair of glasses. Check out the many faces of Luke:)

First day with his glasses, 20 months old

The first pair: Worn from 20 months - Nearly 3 years

These glasses finally just wore out and got too small for his face.

January 2010, nearly 4 years old

Second pair: worn from 3-4 years

These glasses were a fun replacement for the first pair. I thought they brought a different personality to his face with the rectangular frames:) But, when we saw the doctor last year he recommended larger frames so Luke had a larger range of vision.

June 2010, 4.5 years old

Third pair: worn from 4- nearly 5 years

These were the larger frames we chose that seemed to fit his face better. But, this month, the doctor recommended rounder glasses, again to provide a larger range of vision through the lenses.

Fourth Pair
We went with Silhouettes this time. You choose the shape of the lens and the color for the nose and ear piece. The lens are rimless so the glasses should "grow" with Luke by simply replacing larger/wider lenses as his face grows. One very nice feature of these glasses is the flexibility of the ear pieces. I can't remember what material they are made of, but they can be bent and go right back to their intended shape!
Now, to adjust to another new face of Luke:)
