I wear contacts usually, which i know isn't great for your eyes. I can see so-so without them, everything is just sort of fuzzy. Would it be healthier for my eyes to wear my glasses, or not to wear anything on them sometimes and just give them a break?

Glasses are healthier than contacts. With glasses, you don't have to put foreign objects in your eyes. Your eye was designed by nature to be re-hydrated by blinking when exposed to air. Contact lense prevents that normal process.
It is good for your eyes to give them a little break, but only if you are in a safe environment (i.e. not riding a bike or crossing a road) and you don't need to be doing anything that's demanding or straining for your eyes. It is not true that not wearing glasses every single waking minute will make your eyesite worse. Relaxation is very good for your eyes. Tension is bad, like squinting when trying to see stuff is bad.

I wear contacts most of the time, but also wear glasses. I also choose not to wear either sometimes. I am going with the neither part of that question at the moment.

It's totally healthy to wear your contacts if you take good care of them. As long as you follow all the product and eye doctor directions, they're just fine to wear everyday. It's better to see 20/20 than to see so-so, right?

It is better to be able to see clearly. Contact lenses are good if you don't like wearing glasses or participate in sports. If you see your optometrist regularly he should check your eyes for any damage caused by contact lenses.

I'd go with glasses 'cause I wear 'em myself. All the time. You don't ever have to fret over problems concerning contacts, and just have to wipe them clean.

well... i've worn glasses and contacts....i like glasses better... cause you don't go through those moments of dryness like with contacts.... and when driving you can just take them off if you have something in your eye.... i wouldn't suggest going with neither... as your vision could get worse..... just my opinion... good luck...

glasses are best. your vision gets worse if you wear contacts so its best to i guess mix it in. no one wants to wear glasses. One more thing: DON"T SLEEP IN CONTACTS AND CHANGE THEM!!! I don't want eye fungus.... you don't want eye fungus....
