I do not know much about eyes.

When we took my 5 year old to his regular check up, we were referred to an eye doc. He has 20/70 eiht an astigmatism. ( I saw the number +3.75 on the perscription).

We took the perscription to costco (recommended?) and he just got his glasses today. He took to them fine and wore them for most of the next 5 hours.

Here is my question/problem.

After I read him a book before bedtime, he took off the glasses and for the first time ever, his right (weaker) eye stayed lazy for a couple minutes. Is this normal for !st day of glasses, should I expect to see more of this, or do I needed to have his vision reexamined?

Thank you for reading, it is tough being a parent and never knowing what you have to learn about next.
