I've had glasses since I was in grade 6. Like someone else, I can't see anymore than about 6 inches infront of me without them. In the beginning I was only supposed to wear them to see the board at school, read, etc but I wore them all the time and ended up being dependent on them.
I have used contacts before, but I like my glasses much better. Plus, I guess my glasses are like a safety blanket for me, I'm not nearly as comfortable without them on.
I have Ray Ban Wayfarer style glasses. I've loved them for a long time, but I didn't want to get them because they were the in thing and all the hipsters wear them, lol. My mom finally convinced me to just get them and I couldn't be happier. The lenses are so big that I can see so much more than I could with regular glasses and they're very comfortable.
For anyone not familiar with the style, this is it (although mine are red inside, black outside):
I have another pair of smaller framed glasses that are transitions. They're nice, but I'm a photographer and it's sometimes hard to see with them on and get the correct exposure.
I don't have prescription sunglasses, I just use Solar Shades, lol. My boyfriend makes fun of me, but I love them and they're pretty cheap so if I break them I can afford to replace them.
