My prescription isn't strong either but it drives me crazy not being able to see clearly. I just got mine a few years ago. It was a bit of an adjustment. I wish I had the patience for contacts. I might give them a try again. agilpro on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2114617 Thu, 19 Mar 2015 13:41:55 +0000 agilpro 2114617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, been wearing them since I was 15, would feel weird without them. I have no interest in LASIK; several friends have had less than perfect outcomes and several are now back wearing glasses. I have never had a problem wearing them and actually feel more confident when I have them on. Kinda weird but I do! lamariniere on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2029071 Sun, 18 Jan 2015 08:02:51 +0000 lamariniere 2029071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I normally wear contacts. I wear glasses if I'm working for long periods of time on the computer and in the evening when my eyes are tired and dry. Not many people see me in them though. :silly: looch on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2029069 Sun, 18 Jan 2015 07:54:15 +0000 looch 2029069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, and I don't mind them that much. The only time it's a problem is in the summer, when I am in and out of the pool. mrs. bird on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2029066 Sun, 18 Jan 2015 07:50:59 +0000 mrs. bird 2029066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ only occasionally. i'm supposed to wear them for reading and using the computer, but only do if i'm going to be dong either for a while. i get really bad headaches after reading if i don't. i'm having trouble with transitions, like if i look at the GPS for more than a couple seconds and then look back out at the road ahead of me, my eyes cramp up, same thing if i'm on my laptop & then look up at the TV, so i need to head back to the eye dr :bummed: cascademom on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028989 Sun, 18 Jan 2015 00:26:20 +0000 cascademom 2028989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I usually wear contacts, but am wearing my glasses until my order comes in. LO keeps asking me to take them off since he's not used to them. sunny on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028979 Sun, 18 Jan 2015 00:00:31 +0000 sunny 2028979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep! I've been wearing them since I was 11 so I think I look weird without them! wonderstruck on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028971 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 23:38:58 +0000 wonderstruck 2028971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep. My prescription is far too strong for the soft more comfortable contact lenses and the idea of Lasik terrifies me. It's not really something I think about anymore - I've been wearing them every day since second grade, so I think I look weird without them on (although I only know what I look like without them from pictures!) and don't even think about it when I take them off at night, put them on in the morning, or have to adjust them or something, it's a reflexive sort of thing. avivoca on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028958 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 23:15:09 +0000 avivoca 2028958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep! I love them.

I'm considering laser eye surgery once i'm done having kids, though it scares the crap out of me. my private health insurance covers optical so now that its january, its new glasses time :D yoursilverlining on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028933 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 22:45:52 +0000 yoursilverlining 2028933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep - on and off since elementary school (contacts in my early 20's). I have no desire for LASIK. My eyesight is total crap too, I need to wear these puppies 24/7, but I think I look better in glasses and feel more comfortable with them on. HTownMom on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028908 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 22:15:51 +0000 HTownMom 2028908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes, since college! I switched to contacts in grad school, but have backup glasses for the mornings and night. I actually need to get a new pair since LO just broke mine in half! Mrs. J on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028906 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 22:13:38 +0000 Mrs. J 2028906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes! Warby Parkers for my nearsightedness, but I mostly wear contacts. MrsADS on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028902 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 22:06:37 +0000 MrsADS 2028902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, wear them probably 80-90% of the time. They are super thick and ugly even with the thinnest lenses. Warby Parker doesn't make lenses in a high enough power for me to wear. :sad: And I'm not a candidate for LASIK b/c I'm too nearsighted (corneas too thin). I wear my contacts the other ~ 10% of the time but unfortunately I have a lot of chronic dry eye/irritation so I can only tolerate short wear periods. So basically, special occasions. I hate my glasses and I wish I could wear contacts/have LASIK!!!! mrsjyw on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028896 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 21:59:03 +0000 mrsjyw 2028896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep wearing them right now. Dh started wearing them full time a few years back. He hates contacts and only wears for special night outs. Foodnerd81 on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028895 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 21:58:36 +0000 Foodnerd81 2028895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I wore glasses or contacts until I had LASIK in 2009. Now I still need them for driving or movie watching- I can see ok without but feel better with. My prescription is very light now. photojane on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028893 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 21:57:41 +0000 photojane 2028893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep. I have astigmatism, so even though my prescription isn't strong, nothing is in focus without my glasses. I have a pair of Warbies. Love them. Bao on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028886 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 21:47:23 +0000 Bao 2028886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes. I used to wear contacts but now I have chronic dry eye so I can't wear them anymore. I want LASIK someday! matador84 on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028882 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 21:44:52 +0000 matador84 2028882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes, all except when sleeping. Since 13 months old. BSB on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028848 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 21:08:42 +0000 BSB 2028848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup. I have a mild prescription but I need them. I'm near sighted. youboots on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028845 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 21:06:27 +0000 youboots 2028845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup, Warby Parkers. But only occasionally, usually contacts.

Best.Thing.Ever. I'm hoping it keeps me glasses free for a while yet! Mrs. Rabbit on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028789 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 20:00:26 +0000 Mrs. Rabbit 2028789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup! Been wearing them since the 6th grade. I really need to buy a new pair, I'm just too indecisive. I love Warby Parkers; I just need to pick one already! jhd on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028721 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 18:52:55 +0000 jhd 2028721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I wear glasses. And really need to order a few extra cheap pairs because LO loves to grab them off my face! mrbee on "Do you wear glasses?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-glasses-3#post-2028705 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 18:37:19 +0000 mrbee 2028705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I just got a pair of glasses today, after 15 years of so being glasses free! (I got LASIK back in the day.) It's not that strong a prescription so I don't really need to wear them all the time, but my son got glasses too and he's been excited for us to wear them together. I don't mind wearing glasses, but definitely not looking forward to having to track down my glasses every morning! Do you wear glasses?
