    I wear both about equally since my eyes are super sensitive and they are prone to infections. I have to switch off frequently between the two. Plus my eyes get very tired from my contacts, I need some new ones and new glasses.

    I've worn both. But I wear glasses because I don't see as good with contacts as I do with glasses.

    I have both but i'm far too lazy to deal with contacts. Glasses are SO much easier.

    I wear soft contacts. I can't legally drive without vision correction. I need to get some glasses for those times when I'm too lazy to put in the contacts. I'd love to have lasik surgery if I could afford it.

    Glasses then contacts back to glasses
    lasik surgery then perfect vision then
    back to glasses

    So, I guess I would have to vote "All of the above".
    I sure enjoyed having perfect vision for a whole year after lasik surgery. But, then my distance vision started getting bad again. So, I wear glasses when I'm driving.

    I put none because I don't currently have to wear anything. However, at night, I sometimes have trouble driving because I can't see the lines. They don't "glow" like they should to me, so I might have to get night-vision glasses from my doctor. Also, reading has become a bit of a pain for me. We're going to check into reading glasses and see if those help. But all in all, my vision is still 20/10. *shrug*

    I can't legally drive without vision correction either. I wear contacts. I been wearing them since I was like 14 so for about 5 years now. I don't have any problems with my contacts. I'm thankful they make them because glasses don't look to good on me!

    I actually haven't worn contacts in quite some time. Looong story. Actually it's short. I threw them in a parking lot.

    I just recently got glasses, I posted photos of them when I first got them. I only need them for distance, and, even then, it's only to make what I'm looking at perfectly sharp. I can still read highway signs from a good distance, it's just easier now. I mostly wear them for driving and movie theaters. Even the reading glasses in Walmart are too strong. I like wearing glasses, though, I get a lot of compliments when I do. If I got contacts, I think I'd want to try a different color, like maybe a really light brown, honey color.

    I am with Chica and had great vision until about 40 - then everything started falling apart

    I HAVE bifocals but since my reading vision is still very good, I seldom wear glasses around the house at all. A few times, I have jumped in the car with hubby without getting my distance glasses - funny!! I can't see anything but fuzz about 6-8 feet from me and wandered WalMart the other day feeling like I was going to freak out because I got separated from hubby and just wandered in my fog until he found me!!

    I also wear them to watch movies, drive etc

    I wear contacts, glasses and none...depends on how well I want to see! LOL.

    Jonah and glasses are a bad mix. I guess he must have magnets in his little hands, as ZAP they go right to the glasses each time!

    Jonah's a normal baby - glasses ARE baby magnets!

    I have worn glasses since I was 9. I have severe nearsightedness, and an astigmatism (double vision) different in each eye. So without my glasses, if you were more than arm's length from me, not only would you be blurry, but there would be 4 or 5 of you overlapping. Poor you!
