Contacts????

Question

or should i just get another pair of glasses i look OK in glasses but not great................

Answer 1

It depends.  Are you comfortable with putting them in your eye?  I'm 27 and I don't like putting them in my eyes so I would prefer to wear glasses.  They cause my eyes to be really itchy and red.

Answer 2

im 11 and have contacts! they work great 4 me!!

Answer 3

contacts are AMAZING!!!!!!  I have worn them since I was nine and my eyes feel great.  I look OK in glasses too but I look great in contacts!

To answer your question YES!!!!!!

You should get contacts!!!

Answer 4

get them. i started wearing them around you age. they're way more convenient than wearing glasses for most activities.

Answer 5

im 13 and have had contacts for 3 years now. At first they were great but the longer i wore them the more dry my eyes got. It got to the point where i hated wearing them to school bc i would be in pain. You can always try them out but with everyone the still get dry.

PS: the drop you can put in your eye to make it not dry dosent work.

Answer 6

it all depends really.  if you are comfortable in your glasses, then wear glasses. but if u feel that the question of contact lenses will be nagging at you, then try the contact lenses.  It won't hurt to try.  If u like them, and u feel that u are responsible enough to take proper care of them, then go ahead with it.. or wear it when u feel like...example for a party or an event or something.  There are times when u don't want to be wearing glasses, so it won't hurt to have a pair close by. Good luck!!!!!!!

Answer 7

try using both where contacts when your out and switch to your glasses while your home

Answer 8

ok so contacts are great and everything, if you get the right kind for you. i got contacts when i was 12 and they annoyed me a lot, took a lot of time in the morning, and just became a pain so i stopped wearing them. if you look good in glasses and feel comfortable with them, then keep the glasses and use contacts on special occassions. but, contacts can be the easier solution if you dont like your glasses, its really up to how you feel about it.
