Hellobee Boards

I was in early elementary school. I can't remember exactly what year.

i needed them senior year in high school, but i didn't get them until i started college.

I think I may have won so far... I was 6 years old when I got my first pair. They were the ugliest things ever!

I just got glasses about a month ago and I'm 25. I've probably needed glasses for a while, but after christmas (I blame the ps3 my DH got), I started getting headaches every day and it was awful. They would come on after looking at the computer for a while or watching tv, so I went in and got checked and sure enough, I needed a mild Rx. No more headaches though! Hooray!

I needed them when I started high school, but I didn't start wearing contacts until last year.

I was 4 when I got my first pair of glasses.

I was 23. I realized I needed them full-time when I was walking down the hallway at work and couldn't pick out who was walking towards me until they were practically on top of me. Oops.

5th grade... I remember because I got them the day before picture day. My mom made me wear them for the pictures too!

1st grade yep, I was THAT asian geek.

started with contacts freshman year of high school and never turned back... now I can't even wear glasses without getting a massive migraine. I wear contacts probably 12 hours a day, every day.

Age 2!

I was born with glaucoma (had surgery when 8 weeks old) as well as nearsightedness and cataracts! I have been wearing glasses since age 2, started wearing contacts at age 12 and wore them almost exclusively until last year when I had cataracts surgery. Then, I started wearing progressive lenses glasses for work and contacts on weekends.

Since I was born in 1980, let's just say I had some pretty amazing cokebottle glasses growing up ; )

I think it was sometime in junior high though I needed them mug earlier than that. I used to cheat on the eye exams they gave us at school so I wouldn't have to wear glasses.
