An issue often overlooked with children is eye safety. Particularly if the child doesn't need a prescription to see clearly. I have seen kids (and for that matter adults) who play various sports including soccer, tennis baseball, football and other sports who have suffered eye injuries from being hit by a ball, person or racket. These injuries sometimes are sight threatening. We recommend that anyone participating in sports should wear a sports goggle with impact resistant lenses for protection. If the individual wears glasses normally, they should be a special frame that will withstand substantial impact. It could make all the difference in the world.
