O my god. This is so relatable. I was 14 or so when a girl in my class told me I need contact lenses because I couldn't read the school board unless I sat in the front (spoiler, I sat in the back).

And I was like nahh. Then I got a checkup and I was already at like -2. Then I wore lenses for years and I absolutely hated them. They stick to my eyes. Then only at like 18 I got glasses (not cool to teenage me) and I never switched back.

Maybe they should give children check ups, at least once in their life lol.
