Eye problem

2017-11-17 06:54:10
My daughter is 7 year old. She wears glasses of -10.5 in each eye. Recently she also developed a squint. Well, the issue is, she still can't read books using glasses. She brings books very close to her naked eyes. She can't locate the alphabets using spectacle. How can it be corrected?
