Can my kid try contact lenses?
There is no age limit to when a child can wear contact lenses. The most important factor is whether your child is mature enough to handle the responsibility of lens care, including proper washing and cleaning. Your optician will discuss the requirements with you and your child.
Benefits of wearing contact lenses:
• Excellent vision correction, a wider more natural field of vision.
• Convenience - contact lenses won't get fogged up, lost, damaged.
• Great for playing sports, hobbies, and daily activities.
• Increased self-esteem and confidence - studies have shown that wearing contact lenses can improve quality of life of children.
