Does anyone 7 year old wear glasses? If so how do they do with them playing basketball and football and baseball? My son needs glasses and he plays sports year around.

    My oldest has had glasses since the age of 3. 

    If he were doing that many sports, I would invest in two pair, an everyday pair and a sports pair. The sports ones are less likely to break and have all rounded edges so that they don't hurt the wearer or anyone else if hit.

    He does karate right now and can see well enough that he just takes them off to spar.

    You can get them with a strap in the back.

    My sons don't wear glasses at this point but this is what my son's teammate wears for football and basketball.

    My son doesn't wear sports, but he plays a sport with a helmet. Most of his teammates that have to wear glasses when playing get the sports glasses, but a couple have just worn their glasses under the helmet.
