So I have been having trouble seeing things at a distance since about november. it was getting pretty bad and I am planning to go for my drivers license soon and there is no way I would have passed the eye test without glasses.

So I went to the eye doc yesterday and sure enough... I had to get glasses.

Went to lenscrafters today and got them and WOW what a difference. forgot what it's like to be able to see everything so crisp and clear.

Welcome to the world of eyeglasses! I have been wearing glasses since the summer I turned 9, and now wouldn't get out of bed without putting them on!

Forgot to say, you have really light eyebrows, so the glasses help frame your eyes and draw attention to them. And when you want another pair, don't forget ZenniOptical.com for inexpensive - really cost saving - glasses!

I would be lost without mine. I've had them for years. Your's look great. Do you have to wear them to make jewelry? Probably not huh?:)

thank you :)

Yes kids used to tease me when I was little and said I had no eyebrows LOL.

I will have to check them out karen :) lenscrafters had a $100 off "sale" so it saved us some money which is always nice lol.

Thank you. No I only need them for long distance vision

I am near sighted so my up close vision is practically perfect but they tested my vision as 20/80 :O

Hello! Nice to put a face with a name. I always wanted to have blue eyes. Been wearing glasses since 4th Grade. You look great! Welcome to the world of 4-eyed-ness. :D

Goodness! You have lovely eyes!! Hay, congrats on being able to see again. I know what it is like not to see distance. Having those cataracts removed sure changed my world a lot! NOW I CAN SEE and read road signs!!

I LOVE your frames! You chose a lovely pair- they *frame* (:p) your face perfectly! And still show off your GORGEOUS blue eyes!!!! I'm so jealous!!!

My glasses (which I started wearing at age 3) are like Coke bottles, so I have a difficult time getting nice frames. So I've worn contacts since I was around 15. When the procedure is prefected, I'm getting laser surgery for astigmatism.

Good luck with the drivers exam.

I've been wearing specs since age 15 though just for reading. Frames have come a long way since then. You picked a really nice pair. Are those your own eyelashes? Good grief, they're awnings! :)

WELCOME to the world that you can see. I've had mine since I was 19, many, many years ago. Like you I am near sited, works great for building models, but with the glasses I can read a traffic sign almost a 1/4 mile away, drives my wife nuts.

hehe thank you everyone :) Yes those are my very own eyelashes but the mascara really helps ;)

Yeah that's what they kept saying everytime someone would check my prescription... "Oh you have the good prescription. you can get any frames you want with this one" LOL lucky me.

there are SO many frames to choose from. it was kind of overwhelming and I tried on A LOT of frames. but I only found three that I really liked and this pair was my CLEAR favorite... brians too. so I guess they were just made for me lol.

I'm getting used to them. they are really nice and lightweight and my eyes are adjusting pretty well :)

You do look good in glasses - and you most definitely do have beautiful eyes. I'll bet all you have to do it bat those baby's blues at Brian, and you get whatever you want. ;)

Glasses styles sure have changed over the years. I started wearing them when I was 9, and finally got rid of them last year after cataract surgery. However, they are so stylish any more, that I never minded much in recent years - certainly not like when I was a kid and absolutely hated them. Even tho I couldn't see squat at a distant without them, when I was in school I would only wear them to be able to read the blackboard, and then later on, to drive. Now kids seem to like to wear them as a fashion statement. Go figure! I was just never in the right place at the right time! :eek:

Nah I usually just shake my fist at him to get what I want. :D

It's hannah that bats her eyes to get exactly what she wants... and it always works lol
