As long as you have an actual need for contact lenses and your eye doctor agrees you can get contact lenses at just about any age. Check the related links area for a great FAQ from contactlenses.org for more information.

I usually recommend about age 12. The child has to be mature enough to take care of the lenses and be able to put them in and take them out by themselves. The youngest I've put a kid in contact lenses was 8 years old. But he was the most mature 8 year old kid I've ever met. I haven't even put my daughter in contacts yet and she's almost 9 years old.

No, because some kids are born with eye disabilities and aren't old enough to wear glasses.
