Order Only: Private message to Madam Pomfrey
Mrs Longbottom might tell you all of this anyway but just in case.
I examined everyone's eyes at Moddey Dhoo, including the adults. Almost everyone was fine. I made Felicia Saint a new pair of glasses; I think the ones I made for her will work a bit better than what she had, so that was good.
Heather Flockton has lazy eye. I taught a few people the charm, because that has to be done daily, but that should strengthen the eye that doesn't want to do work, so she'll be able to see out of it.
Sarah Little needed glasses. Mrs Bookman seemed really excited, maybe she thinks Sarah will behave better in classes if she can see properly? I tried to tell her not to get her hopes up. Sarah didn't want glasses but she changed her mind as soon as she'd put them on. Anyway I think the reason this was never caught before was that she'd memorised the eye chart at Moddey. Healer Korotkova sent me on my way with one of the charts that resets itself, so children can't cheat! Also there's a charm you can use just to see where the eye is focusing, to give you an idea of how much you need to curve the lens -- anyway she was trying to hide it, but I found her out.
Speaking of Mrs Bookman she needed some glasses to help her with small print, she's been using a magnification charm but I made her some of the charmed spectacles that work for both tiny print and things that are far away and she seemed very pleased.
Tomorrow Pansy and I are going to Sherwood to examine people there so I suppose I'd better go to bed. But I wanted to let you know what I found before I forgot any of it.
