I cant see long distance very well so I wear glasses when I drive. Got my prescription renewed yesterday and treated myself with a designer pair of sunnies with the prescription included.
Neither as I was blessed with great vision.
Someone I know just turned 25 and has to wear glasses now. At 25 their eyesight degenerated that badly. That terrifies me. Not because they wear glasses but that they have somehow damaged their sight so badly so young.
When I was younger I would wear fake glasses if I had said or done something stupid in a previous lecture and yes people would treat me differently. Glasses = intelligence.
Do they go on their computer a lot? I'm pretty sure that's how I ruined my long distance vision I had perfect 20/20 vision until I turned 19 and started working office jobs staring at a computer all day.
Same! I started working an office job recently and I can feel my eyes going bad. Have you heard of "computer glasses"? My optometrist recommended it. It's suppose to help your eyes de-focus when staring at a screen. Personally, I think glasses look very chic but not on my face shape.
Me and some eyeglass wearing friends were talking about this! I hate the feeling of contacts in my eyes but just not having frames and lenses between me and the word is enough to turn me off wearing contacts. When I wear contacts and people look at me it feels too intimate. Like they're looking straight into my soul.Ok, I'm such a nerd. I wear glasses but more as my "safety goggles" rather than actually having to rely on them to see. I just love having something between me and the world. Feels like a bit of protection somehow.. I was the kid who literally "tried" to fail my eye test!
No I hadn't but when I bought new glasses recently the girl selling them to me kept trying to get me to add on a special coating to the lens that sounds like computer glasses. So now I'm annoyed at myself for not adding it on lol.
and yeah i am the same - love glasses on other people but hate them on my own face shape. my face is heart shaped but my cheekbones are quite wide and i feel like glasses make them look even wider it's weird/annoying!
Neither anymore! I had laser eye surgery this week (wavefront intralase sbk specifically) and I can already see so well! I had high myopia (aka terrible vision) and I am so excited. I've been waiting so long for my prescription to stop changing. I had basically no discomfort afterwards, I am so happy I got the surgery.
