Do you wear glasses?
Jump to: Newest in thread
I wear contact lenses in the day if I'm working or out but wear my glasses when I'm at home.
I'm short sighted so only wear them when watching telly but don't need them to read or use my phone so constantly taking them off. Thinking of getting a glasses neck chain so I stop losing them |

"I wear my glasses one day a week as I have to take my contact lenses out. "
An ex g/f's Mother thought she had dropped one on the floor and asked me to help her look for it, turned out she'd put them both in the same eye, the silly mare   |

Glasses wearer since being young.
They have some advantages and alot of disadvantages to wearing them.
I have reactolite in mine so there sunglasses as well.
Used mine like safety goggles often, But masks on buildings sites there no good always sodding steam up. |

No, I don’t yet. Probably will need them within the next year or so, I presume. I can still read but I have noticed that I can’t read as well anymore with dimmer lights. |

yep, all the time.
always used to go without on nights out, but to be honest I feel naked without them now! I'd rather spend a bit on a nice pair and have them as a feature  |

You could try a pair of magnifiers for reading which most places sell. Even with glasses I struggle to read in dim light and I've now got a small book light which hooks onto the top of books. |

Tinted glasses for reading, tv, computer. That’s tv for watching programmes, family guy, Hudson and Rex. Not our amazing fab friends from the ts/tv community, that’s something different. |

Oh, is that so? I had assumed that having glasses would improve the dim light issue. I shall have to look into that. I normally have very bright lights on when reading but it’s a little weird when I have to turn on my phone’s light to read the menu in a dimly lit restaurant. |

"Yes, most of the time. Occasionally contacts.
Pretty much blind without them lol although that can be a bonus with some people... Blurry round the edges."
I hope you wear them when you're administering that cane   |

Worn glasses since I was 11. I moved to contact lenses in my early twenties and then had laser treatment to when I was 35.
I don't miss them at all and so glad I don't have to contend with face masks and glasses! |

The first thing I do in the morning, even before getting out of bed, is put my glasses on. I'm ridiculously short sighted and have worn glasses since I was 8. |

Yup.
Once I broke them, unwearable, and until new ones were made I was entirely helpless. It was grim |

Oh God it's a nightmare if that happens, feeling so vulnerable and exposed. |

I had know idea you wear a glasses wearing Shag, amazing, I also wear glasses, I too wear the very latest, I go into the shop and I say to the optician ‘the very latest reading glasses my good man!’ then the woman behind the counter says ‘You fucking need them love, this is the fish and chip shop love!’
I wear different glasses to cover every Eventuality, for example I have my answering the phone glasses, listening to disco anthems glasses, I wear safety glasses if I’m listening to funk, cause things get funkied up when listening to the ‘Cha Cha slide’.
I also have a pair for when I’m answering questions seriously, like someone will say ‘hey city, what’s your views on serious stuffs?’ I then put on my serious topic glasses and look over the top of them and say ‘I’ve glad you asked!’ Cause then I can shoe horn new words I’ve learnt that day in and they be like ‘wow, you know so much!’and I be like ‘Fo real’ but thinking to myself ‘Thank you, word of the day toilet roll.’ |

 First thing which goes on upon waking is glasses. And the first thing I do after sex. Just too weird not wearing them.
I was moshing at a club once and they came off and fell on the floor and I practically panicked as I went down to retrieve them. |

Strange how she didn't notice immediately. Having 2 in the same eye wouldn't feel normal. Even when they're in your eye the incorrect way round it doesn't feel right. |

I really need to proof read my inane bollocks. |

Unfortunately not, you’re actually more likely to be doing extra damage by not having glasses if you need them. |

That’s not ideal!... I take it you’re pretty rural? |

I do wear glasses. I have about 6 pairs that I wear in rotation.
I can’t do contact lenses on account of having sausage fingers.
I can manage without specs as long as I don’t have to read anything for a prolonged period. |

Have changed my pic for this thread.
I used to rock a sexy Deidre Barlow look in the 80's with my glasses. Maybe the pink NHS frames would have been better. |

Always wore glasses and struggled with contacts. Hate it at times.
Can't really wear latex hoods or gasmasks as I am basically blind. A bind Dominatrix is not a safe Dominatrix... so I have to for go my favourite items in sessions..  |

Yes, was supposed to be for reading only but then my optician decided he needs new golf clubs and my eyesight got worse and I now look like bleeding Mr magoo with varifocals. Without them I'm screwed. |

They do take some getting used to but I can actually see now though. Got a medical in two years and will probably come out with a labrador and white stick next time |
