Sir,
My daughter is myopic(-1&-7.5). Should she wear glasses throughout the day or only while watching TV? When can she start wearing contacts(she is going to be 19 soon)?
she should wear her glasses right through the day or get lenses, because lenses, you dont have to take off any thing, unlike glasses
