Do you wear glasses?

Do you wear glasses? If not, do you wear contacts, or are your eyes in good shape?

I wear glasses because I am farsighted although my eyes are healthy, medically speaking, my ophthalmologist says. It seems like the glasses make vision deteriorate quicker than if you don't wear glasses, but she says this is a myth - that
your eyes deteriorate on their own anyways and that glasses don't speed that process up.

I wear glasses and can't read without them...the other morning I was trying to thread a needle to stitch my pants.....could not see the hole in the needle for nothing, or I thought I was looking at it but the thread would not go into that hole for nothing at all....thank goodness I have some of the needles that are already threaded.....

i have worn glasses since i was five years old.  i used to wear contacts when i was a teenager but because i dont blink often enough my eyes get very dry and hurt and ever since i got pink eye due to dirty contacts i havent worn them since.

[cher666]

yes i do....

[bettey13]

Yep, I've worn glasses most of my life, tried contacts for a while...can't say I liked them much

I got my first pair of glasses on Halloween in 5th grade. My allergies are so bad that I don't think contacts would work so well with how often my eyes water and burn

I wear glasses for almost 6 years now before that contacts but so sensitive so i stop using it.

I have worn contact lenses since I was in high school but recently developed astigmatism, which makes vision with contact lenses less crisp and clear than with eyeglasses.  I switch back and forth from glasses to contacts.  When at work, most of the time I am at a computer; since I am nearsighted, I can handle pc tasks best without wearing either.

I had laser surgery some years ago and also cataract surgery so I just use over-the-counter glasses for reading but I'm probably going to have to get prescription glasses for driving one of these days.

I have worn glasses since I was four. First because I had a lazy eye and the doc. put a patch on my good eye hoping to clear it up. It did some, but they had a heck of a time trying to correct my eye sight. It wasn't until I was 14 that they figured out why. nearsighted in one eye and farsighted in the other. So started wearing bifocials when I was 14. Tried contacts but allergies are too bad and can't keep them in. But what the heck as along as I can see I don't care weather I wear glasses or not.  One good thing about my glasses is no one wants to use them to read a menu.

I do.  Contacts makes my eyes itch so I don't wear those.

My eyes are not in a very good shape. Not that bad either.

I had to get a prescription when I renewed my driver's license. So, now I have to wear glasses to drive.
