You can either use the following conversation or develop similar one using ideas from it:
Student A: Do you know our classmate, Sushil has been very depressed these days?
Student B: Why what happened? Is it because of his weak eyesight or any other reason?
Student A: Yes, you got it right. He has been really finding it very hard to study in the class because of this problem. He can’t see the words written on the board clearly.
Student B: How strange! He should start wearing spectacles immediately. Rather he must have started wearing them long ago!
Student A: I asked him why he has not been wearing the spectacles. Do you know what he replied?
Student B: I guess he feels wearing specs will somehow influence his looks. Am I right?
Student A: Exactly! He confided to me the very same thing! He feels other class students will make fun of him. I tried to reason with him, but then the bell rang.
Student B: I think we must go to his house and talk to him and his parents; otherwise he will lose both the eyesight and his studies.
Student A: What can we do to help him?
Student B: There are many things we can do. First of all we must talk to him and tell him other alternatives. For example, he can wear contact lenses. No one will come to know he wears them, and his problem will be solved.
Student A: We can also tell about the LASIK laser treatment for his eyes. It is a very effective in improving vision.
Student A: Oh really! We must talk to our class teacher. She can also persuade him to have his eyes treated or use alternative methods to improve his eyesight.
Student B: Thirdly we will also talk to his parents to take the matter of her poor vision seriously.
Student A: Wow! I think it will solve the problem. Let’s get cracking then. Let’s go to Sushil’s house first.
