**A Father's Crisis Over His Son's First Glasses**

A father prepares to collect his son's first pair of glasses today. While the boy is calm, the father is emotionally overwhelmed. The father, who wore thick glasses from age five to 36, remembers his own childhood insecurity. He chose frames hoping to become "invisible." His son, however, has no such fears. The boy is reportedly happy to pick glasses that make him look like famous baker Prue Leith. The father acknowledges there is nothing wrong with wearing glasses. Yet, he remains sharply aware of the impact they can have on a young person's life.
