Modern American Teen: Transition from Glasses to Contacts

My DD Kristen and I wanted to give you an update to her journey to contacts since becoming participating Test Drive Ambassadors for Bausch + Lomb Soflens daily disposable contact lenses. She received a complimentary 90-day supply following her eye exam and evaluation. Our eye care professional agreed that she was a great candidate to try them. Kristen returned for a fitting and lesson in use and care of these great daily wear contacts. The eyecare professional was so very encouraging throughout the appointment, and she worked carefully with us to be sure Kristen was comfortable with the process and care regime. Kristen persevered through the whole "touching your eyes" barrier and gained confidence in the process!

She has been practicing the insertion and removal and how important sterile conditions and care are to maintaining healthy eyesight. Kristen looks and feels great - building her self-esteem and confidence. Her friends have commented on how beautiful her eyes are without the distraction of her regular glasses. She has found the entire experience very positive and affirming as she journeys through these tumultuous teen years.

The experience has further cemented our relationship far beyond the issue of eye wear. We have instituted a "Daily Talk” with your teen – which helps us maneuver the "warzone" of parent-teen communication mine field and broach more difficult subjects. Today's youth carry a heavy load that we adults need to support as they journey towards adulthood.

Oh Those Precious Peepers: Bausch + Lomb Soflens

Krissy has the most beautiful eyes!!!
I won't trust those precious peepers to just any eye care professional or brand without doing my homework and ensuring the highest quality of service and care...
She's worn eyeglasses for several years now, and is curious about contact lenses so we were thrilled to participate in a MomCentral Test Drive project with Bausch + Lomb Soflens. Krissy, my hubs Ken and I are enjoying the Bausch + Lomb “Daily Talk Program” where we are exploring options, learning about contact lens use by young adults and discussing the process and options for her to switch to contact lenses. We visited our local optometrist for Kristen's annual check-up and he was supportive of her choice to try contacts. Her maturity and responsibility are key factors in our decision to move forward with contacts. The Bausch + Lomb Soflens have been prescribed - We are currently awaiting the delivery of her lenses and will schedule her fitting upon their arrival this month.
