Do you prefer to wear glasses or contacts?

[nguzman1]

I prefer glasses because contacts always give me problems and dry my eyes out.

I more comfortable with my glasses now but will wear contacts now and then

I wore glasses from the time I was in 3rd grade until my daughter was born.  I got contacts then and wore them for several years.  Now I only wear glasses because the contacts did not work for me anymore.

i would love to wear contacts,but i have an astigmatism..i know they have them for that now..but they still bother my eyes...so i am stuck with glasses

[carmexqueen]

I have astigmatism and I prefer contact lenses but they way that my eyes are I'm supposed to use glasses because with contacts I can't get my exact prescription.

I wore contacts for over fifty years.  I was one of the lucky people who was able to wear bifocal contacts successfully.  As I got older I had to wear reading glasses in addition to my contacts to do up close work.  It got to where I was wearing my reading glasses so much that it was almost easier to wear my prescription glasses.  My eye doctor said that my eyes were getting drier and that I might not be able to wear my contacts much longer, so I gave them up altogether.  Now, when I do close up work, I can see better with my plain, near-sighted eyes and NO glasses.  I do miss my contacts though.

Glasses most of the time. Contacts hurt my eyes too much.

I would feel naked without my glasses...Idont mind them at all

[moonangel]

i like both contacts are great for when im out but for inside and reading etc glasses work best then for me

I prefer glasses, although, contacts are unnoticed. I have really sensitive eyes, so the placement and wearing would be rather uncomfortable for me.

My allergies are so bad that I usually just stick with glasses. My eyes water and burn from coming in contact with something most days so I wouldn't really be able to see with contacts

None of the above. I had PRK surgery about two years ago, and I feel great. I used to wear eyeglasses. Since I have to choose between the two, I would say glasses. Sticking my finger in my eye to grab a piece of plastic on a regular basis does not seem very appealing to me, LOL.

I've been wearing contacts since I was about 15 years old and have never looked back.

Im really not into trying contacts ive always heard they are A royal pain to wear

[squirrelgirl44]

I wear both. I wear contacts most of the time, but really only because I can't find a good, inexpensive pair of glasses that fit my face and don't slide off my nose. I take my contacts out when I get home and wear my glasses in the evening.
