Do you wear sunglasses?  email this discussion to a friend?

Seeing that sunglasses are one of the lastest things to be a real fashion statement with many celebs wearing bold designer glasses. They are quite popular even as a hair accessory to a degree.

I don't wear them as I wear glasses normally and I don't see the need for the hassel of switching them around every time you go inside nor paying for prescription ones. My hubby has had the transition glasses at one point and said it got dark at times when you didn't want them too.

I dont wear them I havent got the patience for them. Havign to take them off and put them on all the time. Its too much effort. I used to wear them but I accidently wore them in a cave when we was going on a tour of the cave and I asked why it was so dark everyone looked at me and laughed needless to say NEVER again!


myLot reputation of 99/100. 3SnuggleBunnies (8024)   ranked 48 out of 19,253 in questions & answers  3 years ago

*LOL* Yeah they are alot of effort. You also have to have somewhere to stash them when you don't need them like a purse.

I dont wear glasses for now but I'm planning of buying one, both eyeglasses and sunglasses. I guess I need to buy eyeglasses since my eyes sore when I watch too much tv or do something on the computer. For the sunglasses, I want to buy not because I want to be fab but I want my sunglasses to protect my eyes from the harmful ray of the sun and not just wear it as a hair accessory or being in fashion. :)

It depends. I wear sunglasses if its a sunny day and sometimes I wear glasses for some special purposes like modeling or something and if I really have to wear it and it depends on the place and people also because sometimes they would just see you as a weird person. I've experienced that. I went to our province wearing a sunglasses like the sunglasses that the celebs wear but then it looks like just an ordinary glasses and I feel like it to wear that time because its sunny but I'm kinda shy because people are looking at me? I don't know why? I just thought that maybe its because they don't usually see people wearing that kind of sunglasses and of course, its a province.

I never wore sunglasses for the same reason, the hassle of clipping them onto my glasses, etc. The transition glasses gave me the same experience, darkening when I didn't want them to!

I wish I had worn them, though. My blue eyes are now greenish and I have a cataract starting. My ophthalmologist says it's because of the Arizona sun, I guess 28 years of that horrible sun just fried my eyes. I should have taken the time and trouble to wear the clip ons. Here in the Midwest the sun is more gentle and I rarely need sunglasses.


myLot reputation of 99/100. 3SnuggleBunnies (8024)   ranked 48 out of 19,253 in questions & answers  3 years ago

Hmmm... I suppose that's a good point if you live somewhere that the sun is harsher on you like it is in a desert condition like in AZ. Clip on's are a PITA. However hubby did have some cool frames that came w/ magenetic "clip on's" wich actually fitted the shape of the glasses unlike the clip ons. But I don't recall how much he paid for them or how long the clip on lasted w/o getting bent out of shape or lost *LOL*


myLot reputation of 97/100. dragon54u (15679)   ranked 779 out of 19,253 in questions & answers  3 years ago

I saw some glasses like that but they were so pricey that I figured I'd never have a pair! So convenient, though, I'd love to have a pair.


myLot reputation of 99/100. 3SnuggleBunnies (8024)   ranked 48 out of 19,253 in questions & answers  3 years ago

I think they were pricey. I don't recall how much he paid for them I know there was some discount thru our insurance for the frames but I don't know I usually pick the free or more reasonable frames (under $50, over what our insurance pays) but he also needs special lens in his as well wich jacks up the price quite a bit.

Hi. I have read a lot of articles saying that wearing sunglasses is a must because it protects our eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays. But I really find carrying/wearing sunglasses as a hassle. Like you, I'm also wearing eyeglasses because I'm nearsighted. Since contact lenses is not an option for me, I tried wearing transitions. Oh my, it normally gets dark even indoors. I guess it reacts with the room lights or something. So most of the time, I just go under the sun without wearing sunglasses.

I do wear glasses normally as I cannot manage wearing bi ficals. Cannot get them out! It was horribke as the place where I went for them in th u.K. told me that I was their first failure! have never forgotton that. I sold my car last year, no it was 2 years ago, and bought transition lens that turn dark in the sunlight and so this is great as I can read if in the sun etc. I just love them.


myLot reputation of 99/100. 3SnuggleBunnies (8024)   ranked 48 out of 19,253 in questions & answers  3 years ago

I don't have bi-focals but I imagine they do take quite some time to get used to. My neice who's 12 got bi-focals a few yrs back and she refuses to wear them, but she needs to for school.

I imagine a transition lens is especially beneficial for the area you live in. You probably have more beautiful sunny days than dreary cloudy ones.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (5234)   ranked 1,003 out of 19,253 in questions & answers  3 years ago

When you first wear bifocals you do have problems but I quickly adjusted to them after a week or so.She should be encouraged to do so or of she is old enough for contacts then they do have contacts in bifocals too.

Nope, I don't wear sunglasses, and never really have to be honest. I just can't be dealing with them, such as taking them off and putting them on, finding a place to fit them when you no longer want to wear them, and the feeling they have on my face.

I don't really like wearing anything on my head or face (hats, glasses etc.) as I just hate the feeling. I know this may sound very weird, but it makes my face feel constrained and uncomfortable. Besides, I'm the sort of person who looks like an absolute idiot in sunglasses. When I put them on, they appear unnatural and stupid.

I like a decent pair of sunglasses when they compliment somebody's appearance or features, yet I believe that for many people (especially men), sunglasses just don't look right. Even worse are when people wear sunglasses indoors. I absolutely cannot stand this and have never seen the point, other than make the wearer look like a complete douchbag.


myLot reputation of 99/100. 3SnuggleBunnies (8024)   ranked 48 out of 19,253 in questions & answers  3 years ago

I only wear regular glasses because I have to. I agree finding somewhere to put them can be quite combersom when you have to take them on and off all the time.

People that wear them indoors usually look suspicious. Though I don't like when they wear them inside my work even trying them out because I've caught a few ladies that put them up to hold their hair back and they "forget" they are wearing them.

Well, I am one of those that enjoy wearing sunglasses. happy Especially when driving a car... Another occasion can be when sitting outside having a coffee break and talking to someone in sunny weather. Then I don't have to squint...

I never used to wear sunglasses,not even after it became such a huge style statement.But recently I noticed that I am getting light pigmentation marks on my cheekbones.That was enough to scare me into buying a pair and an expensive one too!Now I hop around with the sunglasses on whenever I am outdoors.I wish I had listened to good advice earlier!happy

I love to wear sunglasses, but that depends, if it is sunny I like to wear them when I go out for a drive if it is sunny, otherwise I won't use them, I guess also depends on where you live, if you live in Arizona, is sunny most of the time of the year.

Yep it's sunny here but not the same intensity as it would be in AZ.
