We have been asked to conduct a survey to find out parents and childrens' attitudes and perceptions about different vision correction options. Please be aware the questions for your child do discuss various aspects of children wearing contacts.

The survey is open to all UK MNers who have at least one child aged 10-17 years who currently requires some sort of vision correction such as glasses or contact lenses. We have lots of responses from children aged 12 and under and would ideally like to get more from those aged 13+ now, though all welcome...

This survey has two main pages of questions: one for parents and one for your child.

Please ensure your child is nearby when you start this survey as you'll need them to add their responses to the last page - if your child is not with you now please bookmark this thread or the survey link and complete it when you are together. If necessary you can leave the survey open which should save your responses but it would work best if your child is there and able to do the survey after you've answered your questions. There are 20 questions for you and 10 for your child.

We're looking for around 500 parents and 500 children to complete this survey. As a special incentive we have £250 of vouchers to be won by TWO lucky MN families. The two winners - drawn at random from everyone adding their details - can choose from John Lewis or iTunes vouchers to the value of £250 - and we're leaving it up to you how you negotiate with your child over how (if at all) the £250 is split between you Wink should you win....

Here's the survey: www.surveymonkey.com/s/VVKJVPG

Many thanks
MNHQ
PS Please note this survey has been sent to a sample from our panel. Please only complete it once per family.

PurpleKittyKnitting - sorry I can't see any response in there...could you try it again? There are 3 pages - 1 intro, 1 for you and 1 for your DS/DD to do. Ideally you'll need to do it all in one go so could you copy the link somewhere (www.surveymonkey.com/s/VVKJVPG)? thanks so much.

Lovely agent Wink

Sorry to hear that bluebell99 - what happens when you click on the link now?

AnnMumsnet · 25/04/2013 13:20

No doesn't look like it...very odd. Thanks and sorry.

Hi...thanks for all the responses so far.

We are really after more responses from slightly older children now and I have amended the title to reflect that. Ideally aged 13+.

I've also amended the op so its clear the survey is about various aspects of wearing contacts. Appreciate this does potentially raise it as an issue for some parents/children. It's not an advert but is aimed at finding out what teens really think about contacts vs glasses themselves rather than just asking what parents think. All comments taken on board.
