I'm still a young adult but I think that my eyes are getting dim. I can't see clearly objects that are afar off from me. The last time I went to have an eye check-up, my vision was not 20/20 but went up to 75. I think I need an eyeglass. How about you, are you wearing glasses? How can I choose the right one? Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated!lollol

I started wearing glasses about 10 years ago. It was getting harder and harder to focus on small print or small objects. Threading needles was becoming difficult. Now I can see very well with glasses. It makes life more enjoyable. I also have a lot less headaches because I am not adjusting my focus as much.

I started wearing glasses pretty young - when I was in the third grade.
Any symptoms in vision and eye should be checked up thoroughly. I would suggest you have a complete check up and see what the problem is and get correct glasses prescribed. Ask the doctor if contact lenses will be OK - they are a little more expensive but more convenient and dont affect the way you look!

being in your 30s, it might be better (and cheaper in the long run) to get lasik surgery. your eyes do the most of their changes from age 15 to around 30. so for most people your age, what you have now is what you should have until you get into your late 50s. lasik is getting cheaper and more widespread. if you get it, you won't have to worry about losing your glasses, or breaking your glasses, or buying contacts. like i said better and cheaper than wearing glasses.

I agree with the above responses. I only use reading glasses because the muscle in the eye becomes weakened to see close up when you get around 50 years old. This condition, though, should still be looked at by an eye doctor to confirm what lens best fits a person.

I love going to our eye doctor because he is such a happy person. He has helped my daughter out very much who does wear glasses and has poor eyesight. It took her a while to get used to the contact lenses. We made sure that she could put the lenses in and take them out on her own before making a full purchase of contacts. She switches between glasses and contacts depending on things like reading, computer work, driving, etc. I think having glasses makes a person look smart in more ways than one.thumbup

Well I am wearing eyeglasses.
I am working most of the time on Computer.
To avoid damage from this light from monitor I would prefer to wear it.
It has anti-clear glass which reduces strain on your eyes.
Bye

I don't need to wear eyeglasses anymore. There were two different periods, during my teens, when I did need to wear them. I'm not saying that I have perfect vision. All I'm saying is that my vision is good enough that I don't need to wear glasses.

I've been wearing glasses since I was 18 months old, and to decide what glasses you need you should go to an eye doctor. as for types of glasses that's up to you and the style you think you will look good in. you should be allowed to try on any pair of glasses in a store to check to see how you look in them.

either that or you can get contacts :)

I don't wear any sunglasses. I used to wear them many years ago. I started with a big dioptry. Luckily after some years I could get rid of them as I was treated well from the younghood.
If you want to choose the right ones, go to an eye specialist who can help you measuring the problem. I think this is the best way to see if You need any sunglasses or not.
