Please help!! Or could he wear contact lenses?

Question

Hi I've just posted a question about my son and whether or not he can have eye surgery. If not would he be able to wear contact lenses? He is so desperate to get rid of the glasses it's so upsetting seeing him like this. Anyone have a way round this so that he doesn't have to wear them? Thanks again in advance x*x

Answer 1

Sounds like your son is bullying you and you are letting him get away with it. Concede on this and you lose control. Is trhat what you want?

Answer 2

I started wearing contacts around 8 or 9, no problem. still beats wearing glasses!

Answer 3

I've just answered your first question.

Good luck x

Answer 4

Hi Vicky ..... i answered your last question to and i had a little look on a website and it said that in some cases contact lenses can be worn in children and you should speak with your optician about it.

I know this is breaking your heart to see you baby being so upset by this.

I have just recently taken my daughter for an eye test and she also has to wear glasses and she's only three and i also looked into every other possibility for her not to wear them because i'm really scared for her incase of the bullying.

I understand your pain.......................go speak to a good optician and see what they say about it..................... her is some more info.........................

Sorry to hear about the problems your son is having. My daughter is 8 and has terrible vision (20/300) and her glasses are THICK. Our Dr. said no surgical corrections until she is 21-25 because her eyes will continue to change as she ages. He did say she could wear contacts, and we have decided she can get them when she is 9. Before you go ahead and get them for your son, you need to make sure he is up for the responsibility.
