SPONSORED BY MARK PITTMAN--A fourteen-year-old girl goes into a beauty supply store to get a pair of non-prescription colored contacts. The next day, she suffers the wrath of a cornea-eating disease caused by an optical parasite. She never removed the lenses from her eyes before going to sleep, and she cleaned her lenses with regular tap water instead of the solution made for contact lenses. Criticisms vary, siding with the victim against the store for providing false information and substandard products, while others blame the teen and her parents. Are these the culprits of this tragedy, or does the real problem lie within our children's obsessive pursuit of beauty a la Hollywood? Join in tonight @ 11 PM EST by calling 347-337-9967.
