I wear glasses most of the time since high school. At work people say they make me look smarter. It's a nice way to bluff I guess. But when I go to camping or a party I switch to lenses.
I had perfect vision up until about 10th grade. I wouldn't be able to read a whiteboard from the front row of a classroom or be able to read signs going down the road if I didn't have some sort of corrective measure, so I wear contact lenses.
I guarantee you my eyesight is probably the worst you'll ever see, omitting blind people. I can't read the biggest letters from 5 feet away. Good news is I can get surgery at 21.
