Set up an eye clinic in the dramatic play area. Provide white doctor coats made by cutting the sleeves off of small-sized men's shirts. Most pretend doctor kits have an ophthalmoscope or use a small magnifying glass from the Science center. Make a large eye chart with letters and some smaller ones for trying out those reading glasses. Provide cardboard paddles for holding over one eye. Add empty eyeglass frames and a mirror to look into while you're trying on the glasses. Your clinic is ready for operation.
