We recently found out that our 18 month old daughter has Pediatric Pathological Myopia and has to wear contacts. Glasses are not an option due to the high prescription. My question is, do any of you moms have little ones that wear contacts? If so, how are you getting them in and out? Do you have any tricks or tips that might work?
Thank you !
Many years ago my nieighbors newborn son was born with cataracts. He had surgery and also wore contacts. I can't give you any tips but I witnessed my neighbor take them in and out of his eyes and I remember thinking she did it with as much ease as me brushing my kids teeth.
Best of luck! Like everything, there is a learning curve so be patient with yourself.
I do not, but this page of tips & tricks looks good. It has videos too.

I'm so sorry you child is going through this.
I'm sure that when she is fitted, they will give you lots of tips and tricks and it will become second nature in no time! Best of luck!!
:O
that sounds crazy-making!
i guess at this age they can get used to anything, though.
may the force be with you!
