A 16-month-old boy's sweet reaction is going viral after he put on a pair of prescription glasses and saw his mother clearly for the first time ever. According to ABC News, Keaton Luster — who lives in Sugar Land, Texas, with his family — has suffered from poor vision since birth. But that all changed when he put on a pair of blue glasses this month that were made just for him.
The sweet moment was first shared on TikTok
Keaton's mom, Magen Luster, posted the video less than a week ago and it already has more than 23.1 million views.
"We found out our son had really bad vision and could not see anything further than a couple inches from his face," Magen wrote in the post caption.
But just after someone placed a pair of blue glasses on his face, little Keaton's expression almost instantly changes.
Moments later, Magen turns the chair so that Keaton is facing her
And once the little boy raises his head to see his mom, he immediately sees what these "magic" blue glasses are capable of.
"What do you think?" Magen asks her son. "Can you see me?"
The toddler's face lights up with a smile and he leans forward to point happily at his mom. Everything that follows next is absolutely heartwarming.

In the comments, thousands of people couldn't hold back their emotions
"I wasn’t ready for this omg," wrote one person.
"When he pointed at you like 'There you are,'" said another, followed by a string of crying emojis.
"Babies getting glasses videos always got me crying in the club," someone else shared.
(Honestly, SAME.)
The glasses have already made a huge difference for little Keaton
In one follow-up video, he can be seen hitting up a local park with his mom and big brother, crawling through the grass, and basically having a blast while exploring the new world around him.

In another, his mom thanks viewers for sending all their love and updates them about how much little Keaton is loving his new glasses.

Before getting the glasses, Magen explains that they always knew Keaton's vision was weak. But it wasn't until he got older when he clearly showed trouble focusing on things that were far away and his eyes began to cross.
Now the Texas mom is hopeful for what the future holds for her sweet little boy.
"Hopefully soon he will be walking and getting to explore the world more clearly," she told ABC News.
