Brains On! Science podcast for kids

Why do some people need glasses?

Eyes are incredible. But sometimes they need a little help to see clearly. Enter: glasses! In this episode, we'll hear how eyes take in light and paint a picture of the world around us. We'll take a peek inside the eye to see why sometimes vision can be blurry and how glasses help. Then, we'll learn all about eye exams with a visit to the eye doctor! All that, plus a brand new mystery sound! <a class="default" href="https://www.smartypass.org/">Subscribe to Smarty Pass</a> for ad-free feeds, bonus episodes, and ticket discounts!
