Seems fine to me. I would have personally set a mandatory death penalty in there for anyone who throws acid at a child younger than 10, though.

age shouldnt be a issue.... haveing to go through life possibly blind, with a disfigured face... sucks for anyone.

This is so vile... lifetime sentencies seems fine to me.

Its akin to tortureing someone, and cutting parts of their bodies off.

Not all life is equal; a child's life is worth far more than an adult's. Throwing acid in an adult's face, while deplorable and worthy of some pretty intense punishment, is not as bad as doing the same thing to a five year old girl.
