Re: support of a child after divorce
Usually, the term "ordinary" uninsured means co-pays and usually eye-glasses and prescriptions. Contacts are cosmetic usually, so there is an argument there for not paying for them. If your child had contacts during the marriage, that argument would be difficult. Ordinary uninsured also does not refer to orthodontia, cosmetic surgery, or other non-essential procedures.
