I got glasses....

Just now, my dad brought me my glasses, and I have very mixed feelings. I mean, for that last few months, my vision has been getting worse and worse, so I like that I can see really clearly now, but they also make me look nerdy.

Any tips or help?

Re: I got glasses....

I got glasses 4 years ago. You'll get used to it after a while.

I hate touching my eyes, I would never be able to put on contacts, or get used to wearing them.

...Well, one of my friends has glasses, and she is being supportive, so I am feeling better. Maybe you can try that  tongue

That's how I felt at first, but contacts are really quite easy to use after a while. On the other hand, glasses are very easy to get used to, which is an big advantage, and most of them look awesome  big_smile

Re: I got glasses....

My brother got glasses not too long ago, and he got used to them quickly. Don't worry about how they make you look, you'll get used to them. Some people I know don't look right WITHOUT their glasses becuase they've always had them  lol

Re: I got glasses....

Well, I have contacts, but you said you don't really like them. So my advice is that when you pick out glasses, try on a lot of different pairs and try to find one that you really like and doesn't make you look as nerdy.

Re: I got glasses....

I need glasses, though I don't want them. Maybe I'll try contacts. Regardless, I definitely need glasses (I can't read what my teachers write on the whiteboard most of the time, and if I'm looking at something close to me and then look at something further away, I can't see anything). I just hope my parents don't notice my poor vision... Whenever they ask me what time it is I can't see the clock  tongue

You should never underestimate what parents know. One day they'll surprise you with glasses XD

That's how bad my vision is. It started out bad 10 months ago, and kept getting worse, but I didn't want glasses, so I just kept on going. Now, 10 months later, my vision is 10x as worse, so I failed my eye test, so my parents finally found out.

Re: I got glasses....

Glasses aren't bad
Look around your class, half the people will be wearing glasses next year.
They are inevitable
I've got -1.7s or something in my left eye, if that makes any sense
