Default Last day wearing glasses - 09-29-2005, 04:38 PM

Today is my last day i'll be wearing glasses. I get my contacts fitted tomorrow, never tried them before, so i'll prolly be fucked up all tomorrow, thinking i have sommat stuck in my eye

My trial lasts 2 weeks so i pay nothing for that period. I have an astimatism in my eye meaning one of my eyes is a funny shape, so i have to have special tonic lenses (which cost slightly more)

Yeah, it's awkward to put them in and take them out at first. But it quickly gets easier. And don't worry about how the feel, you won't even feel them. Unless you leave them in for a long time or fall asleep with them in. Then they're uncomfortable.

before high school, i never needed glasses. freshman year i realized i couldnt see the board that well, so i got glasses. i wore them on an off till the beginning of junior year when i got my license, then i wore them all the time. and now i still do. i never thought of myself as the glasses-wearing type, kinda weird to think i do now.

ive been wearing contact lenses since i was 12. glasses are irritating, but lenses get like that, but in different ways. its more convenient to have a pair of specs on hand cause you can take them off and clean them, or just take them off if you wanna take a nap or give you eyes a rest. lens dry your eyes out sometimes after a lengthy wear. its also not a good idea to sleep with them on, so whenever you get tired, you gotta get up and go take them off. i sleep with the tv on, so its a pain to watch tv and then get up to take them off before i sleep, so i wear glasses before i sleep. when i get tired, i turn off the tv and take of the specs and take a nap. its good to have a pair of glasses and some lenses.

I prefer glasses...I don't see why people associate it with being a nerd or something...I find them more comfortable than contacts and easier to use...and i don't know I get a difference of opinion on if I look better with glasses or not from chicks...it is really close to 50-50...but all the girls I tend to like to be around are on the glasses side.

i disagree with you on every point. I love my contacts. They're so much more comfortable and look better They're easier to use.
