A member asked:
Is it okay for twelve-year-olds to wear contacts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The maturity of the child and willingness of the parents to help are the factors that determine the age a child can start to wear contacts. I have fit many 12 year old's in contacts. I let the parents decide if the child can handle it.
