How old must you be to put lenses?

There isn't a specific age requirement for wearing contact lenses; it often depends on the individual’s maturity and ability to care for them properly. Many eye care professionals recommend that children should be at least 12 years old, but some younger children may be responsible enough to handle lenses with proper guidance. It's essential for a qualified eye care provider to evaluate the child's readiness and suitability for contact lenses.
