I've been wearing glasses since I was 14 years old. I'm so used to them I'd feel stupid without them.
I've worn glasses for vision correction (nearsightedness) since 6th grade so I feel your pain lol
The pain comes in when I have to pay for new glasses - they cost a fortune!
Oh I know! It's terrible! And constantly having to go to the optometrist to get a new prescription every year is the worst!
Yup! Used to be you could get glasses for free (in the UK where I grew up) but not any more, or I'd just get them when I'm over there.
That sounds like what we need here in the states! Especially with contact lenses. in 2004 an estimated 125 million people wore them worldwide!
Wow, that's a lot of people. I didn't realize so many people had vision issues!
I didn't either until recently. I also learned that they have surgically implanted intraocular lenses available as well.
