Contacts?!?

Question

I recently turned 13 just a few days ago, and I want contacts SOOOO bad!! I've had glasses since either January or February. My mom thinks I'm too young. If you have contacts, what age did you get them at. I'm going into 8th grade. Do you think I'm old enough to get them? Thanxx...

Answer 1

well i just turned 13 3 months ago and i just got glasses yesterday. i think that it doesn't matter what age you are to get contacts because on of my friends got his when he was 13. i fell that if you think you are responsible and ready to handle them then go for it.

Answer 2

I am 12 and I have them.

Answer 3

Er, I was 17 when I got my contacts.

But honestly your age really shouldn't matter. As long as you can take care of your contacts. (i.e. cleaning them daily, making sure they don't get scratches)

Try going to get a week trial pair of contacts to see if you like them or not.
