Contacts > Glasses? Options

[technicolour]

WOOT!

I'm paying for them. And I have to schedule an appt. BUT WHOOT! I'M GETTING THEM!

[juliar]

i got contacts. theyre about 100 dollars for a six month supply (i use the two-week ones)

i guess theyre a pain int he ass sometimes but you get used to them really quickly. as long as you take them out as soon as you can and are clean about it, you'll be fine.

I love my contact lenses. I just have to be really careful in the science lab at school, because apparently some of the chemicals can make contacts adhere to your eyeballs or something. Ugh.

[shortiiex]

people told me to get contacts, but i perfer glasses...i feels werid w/o them on.

[multifaceted]

i've been wearing glasses ever since 1st grade... im 15

i don't like contacts cause you always need to poke your eyes and stuff and who know what the heck are on your hand before you were to put on your contacts...

there's this guy who never took out his contacts and they became part of his eye... the glass kind... thats gross and he still can't see right.

Everyone wants me to get contacts, but I can't. I love my glasses and wearing them, and I also have trouble putting anything near or in my eyes. Someone will have to pry my eyes open if they want soemthing in there, cough the eye doctor, she pried them open and yah I fought back.

Well for me i wear contacts but then i regret getting them i like glasses a lot more better :)

I wear contacts when I know that they're bad for me. I think you should stick to glasses, contacts make your eyes worse because it takes a piece of your eye out. Don't be like me!

[angelrevelation]

contacts are dangerous because things can get stuck in them, and your eyes can get infected or damaged because of it. two people i know had serious damage to their corneas because of infections and things getting stuck. If you do get contacts, make sure to wash them very thoroughly with contact solution, and never wear them the whole day.

I like guys with glasses, I think its kind of attractive. Although if he ever wanted to get contacts I would be behind him 100% as well.

But if I had to choose I think I would pick glasses, I look really good with certain glasses, and if I could never find any I really liked then I suppose I would pick contacts. I have 15/20 vision though so I don't think the time I'm going to need them is going to be soon.

I wear both contacts and glasses, contacts at school and glasses afterward. Thats because my eyes get really really dry and they can burn and sting if you wear contacts too long which is a downside. So it can depend if you have dry eyes or whatnot. Sometimes if the wind is too high, it'll blow dust in your eyes and really hurts..just like today...but other than that, i like my contacts. i wear hard ones and they're perscription kind, so theyre really expensive. But i guess you could try soft ones, depending on your vision. Yeah, i agree. My glasses got extremely crooked several times due to playing sports.

[*a painefull euphoria*]

i wear glasses its the issue i forget them alot or lose them so i guess i should consider glasses.

[Blank-OuT]

I use contacts and have had no problem with them, it's been about 2 years since I've been wearing them. You just have to remember how often to switch contacts and not to sleep with them on.

[*incoherent*]

i have contacts, but i'm almost positive they're not the ones that you can sleep in, but i still do it. i dont think i've taken these out for almost 2 weeks and that's how i am with most, but nothing has happened and i've had them for over 2 years.

also, why would you pay $300 to fix a pair of glasses when you can just get a new pair?

[corohehe]

get contacts please. ur f**king ugly with ur glasses, damn long-necked owl.

[***Lucy**]

I wear contacts all the time.
I think you should buy a pair of contacts and try to wear them for a few days so u can actually see if u like them or not.
The truth is that wearing glasses is healthier than wearing contacts, so you could wear your contacts during school and when u get home you can use your glasses.

Your mum is right, it is difficult when you try for the first time to adjust them and all but you'll soon get used to it. if you are less than 15 years old you have to wait though.

i wore contacts for a year + and not based on looks i would rather wear glasses. Contacts are annoying to put on and off everyday. I kept forgetting to take them out and got some eye damage but it healed in 2 weeks. And when your in school and your contact gets out of line it hurts and if you rub your eye they could rip. Contacts are expensiver it cost me 100-120$ for 6 months worth. I dont see why seeing all around is an arguement i dont know anyone who moves their eye all the way over there to see instead of turning your head...

[voguelove]

Actually..if I needed eye correction, I think I would rock some glasses. Because...my friend's contact like got stuck in the back of her eye or some shit and she had to go to the hospital and they had to like roll her eyeball around or something.

that's what happened to my friend, too. except, the doctors never found her contact. so it could still be stuck in the back of her eye. and if it has, then it's been there for 3 years.
