Speaking of that i need to go get tested never wore a pair of glasses a day in my life,But im having trouble seeing at night time which is something that should not be fooled with.

I've been wearing glasses since the summer I turned 9 years old. I do not get out of bed without putting them on. I am extremely myopic (nearsighted) and have astigmatisms (means you see double) in each eye (so in my case, it's more like trible or quadruple).

Trust me, you'll get used to it, Carol! Glasses are a good thing!

I've been wearing glasses since I was 5 or 6. Guys DO make passes at gals who wear glasses

You'll be able to see so much better now and you'll get some stylish new specs too!
What a great thing! Don't worry about the glasses, I wear glasses too, to read and for class and stuff and they make such a difference!
It will be like a whole new life!

Believe me folks they are a godsend, i have been fustrated for so long, i have been told it might take me three weeks to get used to them, i might feel dizzy etc, so not looking forward to that, but it will come right, yes it will take me a while to get used to that person wearing glasses, but i know i will in no time,it is just new to me is all, besides it is very common for people in my age group , so no big deal is it?

I have glasses since I've been 9 years old and now these progressive lenses for 5 years. I think it is so practical as you don't have to put them down and search for them all the time

I guess I'll join the fun of the four-eye club. I've gotten so used to mine I can sleep with them on too. I wish I had extra money or insurance so I could get rid of these horrible copper frames. I am nearsighted, I have scratches all over the lenses of my eyes, and I am very sensitive to light. I'm not yet to a point of misspelling words but I'm to a point where everything is slightly blurred.

Carole,

As my eye doctor told me, once you hit 40, it's all down hill from there when it comes to your eyes.

I've worn glasses since I was 40. I am farsighted, which means I can't read worth a damn without reading glasses. I have my expensive glasses that I wear all the time (they're progressive bifocals). Sometimes I forget them, so I buy the cheap reading glasses at the Dollar Store just in case. I have them all over the place...my car, my desk at work, my computer at home, you name it.

So girl, go with the flow. If you're not crazy about glasses, how about contact lenses?? I tried them and loved them. Only problem is I had to compromise my distance vision in order to be able to read with them. Plus my eyes are very dry so it was more of a pain. That's when I finally resorted to wearing glasses. "Guys don't make passes at girls who wear glasses" is an old saying I used to hear all the time. But at my age, WHO CARES?????
