Every practice has patients that can’t master insertion and removal of their lenses – especially first time wearers. The smaller size can be easier to handle for these patients. For kids, it helps alleviate morning struggles with putting contact lenses on. Happy kids, happy parents.
Patients also have more confidence putting the smaller size in their eye. If a patient can learn how to insert and remove their lenses more efficiently in their early stages of wear, it will increase their chances of long-term compliance.
