About Contact Lenses 1 > > ι\α1Γ·^Ι1 D VIllllJ 1 O.D.. F.A.A.O. Nearly 8 million people are presently wearing contact len ses with an additional 6ου,ο<*» being fitted every year Of this number, one-third are in their teens and sub-teens. This brings up the question asked by many parents, "should I wait until my child is sixteen years old before 1 let him wear contacts?" The hu man eye reaches ful' physical development by age 7 with ihe result being that past the age of seven an individual decision must be made as to the child's ability to handle the lenses This decision must be made b> the parent because it is based on the child's ability to as sume responsibility, perform the task consistently, and fol low directions. The emotional difficulties and rapidly vary - ing interests will, for certain individuals, make age sixteen the worst time for them to be fitted with contact lenses. This brings- us to the other end of the age scale and to the general statement that the older a person is. the better they can wear contact lenses This is based on the fact that age causes a decrease in the sensitivity of the eye. Many persons past the age of fifty are now wearing contacts as is demonstrated by the increas ing number of bifocal contacts being fitted. The contact lens is the method of choice for correcting a persons vision after they have had cataract surgery. If a cataract is re moved ffom one eye and the other eye is normal·, the per s-"-wili have double vision Craigheud Road To Clone For Culvert (".onHtriiction Beginning on Wednesday September 1, Craighead ltd. will be closed to through traf fic between Kaleigh ami North (îraharn Streets The purpose of this closing is to construct two new culverts across Craighead ltd at Sugar < reek and IJerita Branch The esti mated cost of this project is $250.000. with a scheduled , t. completion dale of January. •■-Ι Item ember' jr you dont read the Charlotte Poet each week, you don't know what s happening in the Charlotte m* Dr Kaleigh Bynum with regular glasses but will haw normal clear vision with ont « onlact lens on the operat ed eye and then glasses for the mm-operated eye. Certain individuals past the age of TO have difficulty handl ing the contacts and must have help in inserting and removing the lenses. In this case another member of the family is instructed in lens handling and care. Although we have spent some time discussing it, age is not the most important aspect οι wearing contact lenses. Age along with physical eye struc ture and presence of allergies or diseases can be determined in a short period of time, but the one known factor is moti vation. Some practitioners be lieve that successful contact lens wearing is 90 percent motivation. The practioner must make a judgement at some time during the fitting whether the person is really motivated to wear them or is this just a whim. The whim will disappear during the first week of wearing time, but proper motivation will result in a successful contact lens wearer. You may judge from this result in a successful wearer. You may judge from this that the first week is the most difficult, this is correct. No pain is involved but a great deal of -concentration and self-discipline. We hear a great deal about gun nuts and sports car fana tics, but the biggest fanatic is the successful rontact lens wearer. Ask a contact lens wearer if he or she would give up their lenses and go back to glasses. Be prepared to re ceive a lengthy lecture.
