Problem Scenario 1: needing to buy some new glasses
Isabella thinks she needs new glasses. In the past, she waited until she could
go home to Copenhagen to get new glasses. She has not been to the eye
doctors in 5 years. She has been wearing her old glasses even though she
has problem reading text on her computer.
