Are Contact Lenses Safe for 12-Year-Olds?

Contact lenses are generally considered safe for children, with studies indicating that the likelihood of eye infections in young users (ages 8-12) who wear soft contact lenses is actually lower than that for teenagers and adults. Among the options available, daily disposable soft contact lenses are the safest choice, presenting an eye infection risk of approximately 1 case per 5,000 users each year.
