Do not worry at all. Cylindrical power is due to the shape of the eye and usually does not progress with time. Your son can see even without glasses, so he does not have “weak” eyes; however, wearing the glasses help him to focus better. He is only 5 years old so don’t force him for constant wear.. it is not the end of the world if he occasionally takes them off! Maskati Eye Clinic; opposite Charni road station east, Mumbai
