I don't think many opticians will prescribe them at 13. Mine would only let me have them when I got to 16.
Been wearing soft lenses since then (I'm nearly 25) with no issues what to ever, well apart from being allergic to the preservatives in all-in-one solutions. Plenty of other solutions to choose from though.
Started on Monthly disposable ones then I moved onto the wonderful continuous wear ones and I'm currently wearing daily disposables.
Can't imagine leaving the house with my glasses on, gives me the creeps just thinking about it!

Wonder if you'd give one of your avatar "chavs" a job in your company?  |
I suppose it depended on whether they were good enough... if they adhered to the dress code...
As I said, I don't care about appearance, chav-baiting is OK but some chavs are OK, never judge a book by its cover.
As for the contacts- you're 25 so that explains it- it's not long enough to damage eyesight but I'd be surprised if long-term use of contacts didn't. I'll stick with the "4-eyes" look but it's OK, I don't look like Harry Potter!

oh yeah - well imagine going for a job as a newsreader then |
Well I'd just not wear them - my eyesight is good enough.
