Glasses or contact lenses?

Question

ok, ive had glasses for a few years now and just recently i decided to get contacts. so for they are a pain just to put on, and i guess they are really just for appearence, which is why i got them. Do you think i should forget about the contacts, or am i just overreacting. and do you think that glasses are better than contacts in the long run?

Answer 1

Answer 2

I really like my contacts. You just need to get used to yours. Before long, you'll have them in and out in seconds.

Answer 3

i think contacts look better than glasses

but u can get some that you can wear at night time so u dont have to change them eveyday

but i dont know if there better for your eyes

Answer 4

Contacts are really easy to put on after you practice a little. Just don't give up after the first try because my optomologist told me that a lot of people do after they don't get it right away. If you have the kinds you can sleep in, they have made my life so much easier.

Answer 5

Trust me, I couldn't even put eye drops in when I got my contacts.  You'll be putting them in and out in no time without even thinking about it.  They have ones that are so comfy now that the only way I can tell if I have them in is that I can see. LOL  Sure can't feel them in my eyes.  I don't care how gorgeous or handsome ANYONE is, EVERYONE looks better without glasses.  Plus, with contacts you can wear whatever sunglasses you want, etc. etc. - a ton of things you can't do with glasses.  I had an illness and was not able to put my contacts in for about a year, after I had been wearing them for only a year.  I actually sat down and cried the day I got my contacts back. LOL  I wouldn't take a million bucks for mine if I had to go back to glasses and I never wore glasses, just readers for about 4 years.  That was enough for me.  My husband wore glasses since he was a young child and had no desire to get contacts, didn't much like them when he got them.  Then about 6 month later once he was accustomed to the contacts, he said he had no clue how he wore glasses for so many years.

Give it time, as I am certain you will come to LOVE them- as long as you get a comfy pair.  Most people can wear several different brands/ types and a good optometrist will work with you to find the perfect pair for you.
