at what age can kids wear contact lenses?

Dr. Byers generally leaves this decision up to the parents. The most important factor is the level of responsibility demonstrated by the child.  Contacts can contribute to eye infections and vision damage when they are not handled and cared for properly.  Daily disposable contact lenses are a healthy option as they minimize these risks.

If you feel that your child is able to handle the responsibilities associated with contact lenses, then Dr. Byers is more than happy to fit them with lenses.  Her staff will carefully go through insertion, removal, and care instructions. For reminders and tips, refer to our contact lens section of our website.
