This week my focus is on 4teen and their attitude toward life. I believe that 4teen is experiencing a delightful age, but they all and I really mean all share a common trait; they are all nearsighted. No, I never wanted to be an ophthalmologist, but I guess after all they do not call us Dr. Mom for nothing. Their condition (4teen) is age related, like getting old and having catheracs( I know I have spelled it wrong, but I am unable to find the correct spelling at this time. Apologies.) But the good news is that with proper treatment and coaching, their condition should get better and in most cases gone as they grow out of 4teen and beyond. I hope.
The majority of 4teen is incapable of seeing farther too well, but they can see what is close to them very well, and by that I mean in life in general and not in medical term. They are all wrapped up in their present life that they fail to see their future and try to focus on it a little bit more. Most of them have dreams alright, just doing a bit of prep work to getting to that dream, is not the focus of the now. Having fun now is the objective of the game.
The way I see it, I need my ophthalmologist to prescribe me the right lenses so that I can see better so that I can perform my daily activities easily. 4teens needs a role model, that being a parent, guardian, mentor or a sibling to become contact lenses and eyeglasses to help them balance their near and far in life, so they can function better too.

Nearsightedness or myopia is the most common cause of blurred vision when viewing objects at a distance. People with nearsightedness must squint or strain to see objects that are not nearby. This is most notable for children in a classroom setting where it can be difficult to read the blackboard. At home, a child with nearsightedness might insist on sitting close to the television, or hold books very near the face.
Nearsightedness can develop early in life or in adulthood, and is caused by the eyeball becoming oval or egg-shaped instead of round. When this happens, light entering the eye's lens does not reach the retina at the back of the eyeball, but focuses just ahead of it. The result is blurred vision.
hey dude thanks for the info about nearsighted ness. very educational.
