    From what age do contact lenses start?

    What do you need to know?

    Contact lenses can be used in children from around 8 years of age, if the child is mature enough and can take care of their hygiene.
    Improper lens care, such as using the wrong solutions or lack of disinfection, can lead to eye irritation and infection.
    The lenses offer many advantages, such as comfort during physical activity, better peripheral vision and no evaporation, which is particularly beneficial for active children.
    The decision for a child to wear lenses should always be made by the ophthalmologist in conjunction with the parents, taking into account the health of the eyes and the child's readiness for self-care.
