Benefits for Kids & Teens
Vision Quality
Contact lenses provide comprehensive vision, so kids can safely spot things out of the corner of their eye.
Appearance
Contact lenses can help give kids a self-esteem boost. In a clinical study, 80% of parents agreed that contact lenses made their children feel more confident.**
Freedom
Lenses allow them the freedom to run around, take part in sports, and play without glasses getting in the way. That also means no fear of glasses breaking or being knocked off.
Comparable Cost to Glasses
Contact lenses are usually easier and economical to replace than good quality glasses when they are lost.
Are They Ready?
There’s no minimum age
When it comes to deciding whether or not your child or teen is ready for contact lenses, it’s important to consider how mature they are. Are they showing responsibility at school and at home? If the answer is yes, it may be time.
