Optometrist sort of suggested that glasses were an option, but it was more of a wishy-washy recommendation.

We have seen no signs of squinting, she doesnt have trouble reading, and we asked her teacher at parent teacher interviews if she had noticed anything. So far no problems except for during the eye exam(s).

Would you recommend going for a second opinion, doing nothing, or proceeding on the glasses route?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
It is never a bad idea to get a second opinion. Sounds pretty borderline, but I can't make a recommendation over the Internet.
