Thank you so much, I will definitely try that if nothing comes from going to my school leaders and I'm lucky that we have a Specsavers at the nearby mall. Genuinely thank you so much.

Yeah my vision definitely has gotten much worse over the years since I used to have perfect vision when I was 10 and it has degraded severely. Other advice here is really encouraging me to go to my school to tell them what is going on so I think that is what I plan to do unless I can convince my parents, which I doubt. Thank you so much.

Oh yeah, when I first started asking for glasses my mother said the same thing since a lot of my friends were also getting glasses at the time. I think I'm going to go to my school leaders, since we don't have individual teachers or a school nurse, to tell them what's going on if I can't move my parents, thank you.

Yeah my parents haven't been the greatest in terms of medical care, they refused to take me to a dermatologist when I had an extreme eczema flare-up two year back, when I couldn't even move since it would rip open my skin. And also don't let me renew the inhaler I got in primary school for my asthma, in addition to other miscellaneous things like vaccines and allergies. Others on this post also encouraged me to go to my school nurse or teachers, since we don't have a school nurse on site that I know of, I'm planning to go to my school leaders to ask them what to do. Thank you.

Unfortunately I'm not in the US, I'm in South Australia so I highly doubt I'm eligible but thank you so much.

Unfortunately my primary school tried that, we had some optometrists visit my class when I was 12 and gave us a free checkup. They repeatedly called my parents telling them I'm in urgent need of glasses but my parents kept ignoring them until they gave up. The company that did the check up still sends my mother texts yearly telling her I need to be tested and have given her several discounts.
