      anyone try the altropine eyedropped method for children ?


      Does it work?

      Hi, my son was on atropine since Feb this year.

      His eye sight was deterioriating every 3-6 months. It was finally under controlled since we started him on atropine this year. He is still on the eye drops. So far so good **keeping fingers crossed** Next visit to the Dr will be in Sep.

      My son also have the same problem and was advised to use altropine eyedropped. I cannot make up my mind as there are so many side effect. For long term usage, what will happen as I understand that the eye drop is quite strong. The eye specialist dun advise of using ortha K lens as it will not help to maintain the power. Don't know what is the best for my boy. Any advise? šŸ˜ž Help!!!

      My son is currently with Cristofori Simei since this Mar. He ever joined Cristofori Punggol last year but drop out due to the fact that the teacher was very unmotivated. Rejoined cristofori MLM class in Mar this year after a fren shared with me that the teacher in another centre who teaches MLM is good and effective.


      So far, he is progressing well. I must confess that he is not diligent in his practises as we are not strict with him... and it will affect the learning progress.

      Thus, it's all depend on the teacher and the amount of practises the kids put in , not solely on the school... the school curriculum does play a part in creating the interests and wanting to learn.
      Hi
      I am looking at a good teacher which is able to motive my boy, any good recommendation?

      Any good music school to recommand in kovan/hougang area? My son has been with My Music Inspiration for 1 year, per individual piano lesson is $30 for 45min. He's doing ok except that there's no much feedback from the teacher, I don't really have any idea how's his progress (am not musically trained) and he doesn't seem to have much interest in playing at home. I want him to embrace music as something that he will enjoy in his later part of life...doesn't seem like the teacher is installing this interest or motivation in him. In fact, I often heard her raising her voice at the kids for not 'memorising' the notes for their theoratical homework. Now pondering am I paying too much for him to this kind of exposure?

      Hi
      My boy is attending the music class in My Inspiration and he got the same feedback as yours. He also don't have the interest to play at home. We are thinking to swap him to another teacher.

      Hi Mickey,


      The most important thing to do now is to strengthen his foundation. He may be despaired that he cannot read notes properly and has to spend a lot of time figuring out the notes to practise the piece properly.

      Is he in a group lesson or 1-1?
      Yes, he is having 1-1. The problem is that I also don't know much about piano. How can I strengthen his foundation so tot of switching school.

      Hi Pianojazzy


      My 5yrs old boy has been learning piano for about 8mths but he is not able to remember the notes and fundamental is very weak. Furthermore, its seem like he has started to lose his interest and we have to force him to practice at home. We have to stop the class as we are not able to see the progress and are not sure what is the cause of him losing interest. Is there any way we can motivate him? Is there any good teacher to recommend?

      I thought Optician can't prescribed for children under 7. They have to use the prescription from the refraction clinics.


      one of the advice that the Ophthalmologist given to me is that after wearing glasses for a while, my girl Astigmatism may corrected but chances she will have short sighted then.

      You are right. Optician are not supposed to prescribed spectacles for children below 7 years old. They will need to have the letter from the refraction clinics. For my case, I just bring my daughter to test her eye sight using the machine. As I had mentioned earlier, I did not go any further.

      Hi
      Recently, I just bring my boy to the polyclinic for check and confirm that he short sighted and required to wear glasses even tot the degree is abt 100+. Thinking of going for 2nd opinion. Anyone has any recommendation which specialise is go.

      I also hear that there is eye therapy which will help to reduce the degree further . How true is it? Anyone has experience before.
