Glasses vs. Contacts?

Question

I'm getting contacts for the first time. What's anyone's opinion on them? do u like them? or dislike them? Why?

Answer 1

I have contacts, got them last June. They are great if you just hate your glases. For the first couple weeks, you might have to practice putting them so they don't bend in your eye. And if you have a thing about touching your eye, don't get them. But don't sleep in them or your eyes will hurt the next morning. And they say you need to take them out for a shower, but as long as you don't have water pouring into your eyes, you can wear them in the shower.

Answer 2

Well...first of all, you will probably see much better with contact lenses because they are closer to your eye than the glass from your glasses are. Secondly, if you are not happy with your eye colour, you can change it. Thirdly, contacts are not uncomfortable in your eye if they are wet enough and you won't get that glass imprint on your nose. I wear glasses most days at work because I use a computor a lot, however, I believe that contacts are great for socializing. Generally speaking in my humble opinion, the majority of people look better without glasses. Contacts give a more natural look.

Answer 3

I have had contacts for almost four years now and I can honestly say that they are hardly any hassle to put in, they are more comfortable than glasses, and I actually have better vision with them in. In my glasses, I have perfect 20/20 vision, but with contacts in I usually test at about 20/10 vision! Also, with contacts I have peripheral vision, which I don't have with glasses.

Answer 4

I have been wearing contacts for about 10 years, and i absolutely love them. But as I have grown older (23), I think of glasses as an accessory. I really like a nice pair of sophisticated glasses, I think the right pair can make you look sexy.

Answer 5

i were glasses too. I used to wear contacts. Make sure you get a good kind for your lifestyle. If you dont have a lot of time in your day, make sure you get the ones that you could wear for 3 to 4 days. That will simplify your life. If you dont, there are some way confortable ones that Acuve makes. Here is the website for you.

If you get them from here, they are way cheaper. Just make sure that they fit your lifestyle.

Answer 6

I got contacts when i was about 11 or 12. I got night contacts. You put them on before you sleep and you sleep with the contacts on. You take out the contacts in the morning and wear them at night again to sleep. I have them and they are hard to put on at first but you will get used to them. They are hard contacts so they might hurt if you put them on incorrectly. i cannot guarantee you will find them evreywhere.this system works really well for me, i can see with 20/20 vision.

Answer 7

Contacts are fashionable, but sometimes irritable. Depending on what you want though, glasses are comfortable, but contacts allow you to be more free.

Answer 8

glasses make anyone look smart and sophisticated... which can help when applying for a job! if you want to compromise between contacts and glasses you can go for rimless or thin rimmed glasses. i think glasses are good for long-faced individuals, because it breaks up your face. those with short, round faces might want to wear contacts, because glasses can make your face look smaller.

Answer 9

i love my contacts. make sure not to sleep in them unless you have Night and Day ones. if you do sleep in the mby accident just pour a lot of solution into your eyes before you try to take them out because they will be very dry.

Answer 10
