“I really chalked it up to screen fatigue because my kids didn’t have a lot of access to devices (before the coronavirus quarantine). All of a sudden they’re thrown into this world where they’re on Zoom for school and the only way they can connect with their friends afterwards is to continue on these devices. It was not something my kids were used to,” she said.

She noticed he would blink heavily while trying to focus on the screen in front of him. But, as time progressed, she got more concerned.

“They said not only did he have myopia — the common term is nearsightedness — but it was progressing extremely rapidly.”

She spoke out as part of her work promoting CooperVision, an eyewear company that makes contacts that are safe for kids and have been proven to slow the progression of myopia in kids ages 8-12. She says Rocky is excited to try the contact lenses, as he’s resisted wearing glasses and is worried about how glasses will effect his ability to play sports.

Freddie Prinze Jr Opens Up About How His & Wife Sarah Michelle Gellar's Friendship Began

Freddie Prinze, Jr. is sharing more about his and wife Sarah Michelle Gellar‘s love story.

In a recent interview with US Weekly, the 44-year-old actor revealed just how they first became friends from the set of I Know What You Did Last Summer.

“She didn’t have a driver’s license. She didn’t know how to drive. And we were shooting in Southport, North Carolina, which was an hour’s drive from the nearest Wilmington, which was the biggest city that was closest to us. It was an hour drive just to get to the gym. And when we transported the film down to South Park, she had no way to get up there,” Freddie explained. “So, I started driving her, and that’s when her and I became friends.”

He added, “We just would talk about life and stuff like that, and we had completely different philosophies on just about everything. ‘Cause she was a born and raised New Yorker and I was a born and raised L.A. kid, and we just looked at everything like night and day.”

Freddie continued on, saying that he wanted to keep being friends with Sarah because “I thought she was too skinny and I wanted to cook for her. Because that’s what my family does.”

“We started this weekly barbecue thing at her house, and me and my cousins would come over and cook food for her and her friends. And then we’d make sure everybody ate, and that was kind of how our friendship began.”

If you missed it, Sarah shared a “thank you note” to one of their mutual friends for missing a dinner that ultimately lead to her and Freddie being more than friends.
