5 yr prehistoric sons illusion screening?

It went very badly today. He have 20/70 in his right eye and 20/200!! in his left. They said he be far-sighted with astigmatism. To be sure they want him to come back next week so they can fully dilate his eyes and re-do the try-out.
lso said I should've brought him in sooner and they might could have prevented it from getting this bad. He said kids should own eye tests every 2 years. Where is that these kind of things are listed?? I get the impression so guilty and horrible... The doctor said he was born with it but apparently I didnt help by not taking him to an eye doctor sooner...

Hes never complained of headache, poor vision or blurry vision, hes never squinted or acted like in attendance was a problem...

My son started kindergarten and they do the eye exams, height, weight, etc. The college nurse calls me (on my daughter's due date on the way to an appointment) and says I have need of to get him to an eye doctor ASAP...all he could read was the big E beside his left eye! So I get him in the subsequent day, luckily, and apparently he had severe lazy eye. But the entry was it never wandered and he never complained about anything...headache, he can't see....nil.

He's been wearing glasses for almost a year now and they've in truth improved by two lines since his first visit. The left lens is alot stronger than the right though. If the college nurse wouldn't have caught it when she did it's very unlikely they would have be able to improve as much as they did.
