[quote=Anonymous]My 12 y/o dd has been asking us for contact lenses, and says that by this age, most of the people in her grade (7th) are wearing them. I'm hesitant mostly because I am worried about her getting an eye infection (we had an adult friend a few years ago who needed a corneal transplant due to contact lens-based infection). Does anyone know what the current risks and rates of infection are? How to know whether a kid is ready for lenses? What age most kids start wearing them? Tips for success? I'd be very grateful for all advice. Thanks![/quote]
