The sales pitch for contact lenses that help kids see better by reshaping their corneas sounds futuristically appealing. Sleep overnight in the lenses, pop them out in the morning and experience perfect or near-perfect vision for an entire day.
Beth Levenson of Williamsburg, Va., thought the lenses, even at a price of $2,000, seemed ideal for her son Logan, then 9, who played on several sports teams.
“It was pretty amazing, actually,” Levenson said. “He’d sleep in them at night, and when he woke up in the a.m. he could see. It was going beautifully, then one morning he woke up and said, ‘My eye hurts.’ ”
