I have contacts and glasses. I don't like wearing glasses though, so I usually just wear my contacts.

I have a pair of specs but i rarely wear them. R50 L25, therefore, i hate my right eye.

I used to only have glasses for watching tv, or looking at things far away but eyesight got worse and now i wear contacts and dont i like wearing glasses anymore.

I wear both of them, contacts for work, glasses for the other period of time.

I like contacts better, more comfortable!!!

Ok, now it's my time to let it out!!! I've been wearing glasses since I was 4!!! At first, because my eyes weren't fully straight! But this problem was fixed, without surgery!

 

My vision, especially my right eye, was really bad! I couldn't move around the house without my glasses! I don't know how you measure it, but my vision was like '-7' left, '-14' right!

 

In highschool, I started to wear contact lenses! I got used to them and I wore them for 5 or 6 years, I think! I had no problem with them, just that I wore them only outside, inside the house, of course I had to use my glasses!

 

After a relative of mine had lasik surgery, I said... why not??? I don't want to see perfect, I was sure that it's not even possible, but I just wanted to be able to see around without glasses! And I did it! Only that for me, lasik wasn't possible, so for my right eye, they did an implant (can't tell you the term exactly - but the surgery is called: fukala)! As for my left eye, they did a laser called Perek (or something like that)! This was more complicated, but I didn't feel like those with lasik felt... I was luckier!!!

 

So, to conclude with, you have nothing to fear! If they didn't mess my implant inside the eye (which involves cutting the eye, extracting the messed component and replacing it with an artificial one), I think you'll be ok with a lasik surgery which is the most simple!!!

I got contacts when I was young...about 12. I had a problem wearing glasses because my eyelashes are too long. My daughters have the same problem...super long lashes. We all wear contacts. Glasses hinder your peripheral vision whereas contacts do not.

I started wearing glasses at 7! My first pair were an cat eye rim glasses-looked so goofy . It was the style in the 60's. I am extremely nearsighted and have an astigmatism.

I would have the lasik surgery,but it doesn't guarantee the astigmatism to improve dramatically.

 

My sister tried the exercises several yrs ago. Her vision was so poor so any improvement was a relief.
