When did you get glasses?

[Ickorus]

Soon.

I need glasses but I keep putting off going to the opticians.

I had to get glasses when I was 6 or so. Supposedly I was growing so fast my eyes couldn't catch up, or something like that.

I use contacts now. People say I look better without glasses than with.

It's crazy when you put your first pair of glasses on, it's like all of sudden IRL is in HD. It's harder to creep on sexy people when they're all blurry, too. If you're near-sighted anyway.

I got mine a couple of months ago. I hadn't thought much about it until I started working in the Wal-Mart Vision Center. I found that I needed glasses for reading and computer work, but found out that if I wear them all the time my migraines go away.

I think I was 11 or 12. I still only wear them for computering, book-reading and game-playing. And sitting in lecturesing.
I hate how stark and filthy the world looks in 20/20 vision.

I had a visible problem with my eyes at birth- they turned at an angle, or something along those lines- so I had people dicking about with them from day one. Consequently, I do not have any memories in which I am not wearing, holding, looking at or accidentally breaking a pair of glasses.

I don't even need to wear them permanently anymore, I'm just used to it. I take them off, people I know tell me I look weird.

I first needed glasses when I was about 12(9 years ago), my vision literally went overnight, and by quite a bit. I was gutted, I don't like wearing my glasses and much prefer contacts.

Oh I know, the only reason I realised I needed glasses was because I was screwing around at college and put on my friends glasses and found everything was 10x clearer.

Never. I have 20/20 vision.

 

[Ace of Spades]

I got them when I was about 13, and now, five years later, I think my eyes are done worsening.

 

[CrystalShadow]

Got mine first year at university when I realised I couldn't read any of the stuff the lecturers were writing (or showing on projector screens.)

I was 19, I think.

 

[KimberlyGoreHound]

I got mine when I was about 15, cause I never said to anybody that I couldn't see that well, I thought it was normal. lol.

I was the same way - I had no idea what clear vision was supposed to look like until I went to the eye doctor when I was about 15 and realized I have shit vision.

 

[Uber Evil]

Thankfully, I have 20/20 vision, so I don't think I'll need them any time soon.

 

[BENZOOKA]

Flawless eyesight, so far...

It's been a while since my last test; about 3 years though.

Hopefully, never.

I think I got them when I was eight or something. When I was 24, I forked out the 4K for laser eye surgery and have never looked back.

See what I did there?
