wearing glasses

I wear glasses and I hate them. I cant see far away without them so need them to drive. I also wear them to work so I can see down the hallways but find the residents are allways wanting to hit me in the face. Had my glasses go flying more than once and don't know why they haven't broken yet. I also have a farm where I work with cows and horses and I don't wear my glasses then because I am scared they will get broke and I can't afford a new pair. Makes me wonder if there is any way to retrain your eyes to not need glasses anymore?

Hey starlight! I don't know if you can really retrain your eyes! I need glasses to see both far and near! So I wear two different pair! I don't know if you have a dollar store near you, but if you do you should check out the glasses there. I buy different number glasses so that I can have extra pairs to read and to see far! They have different strengths so if you go and try on different numbers of prescription strenghts you might be able to pick up some extra pairs! That's what I do so I can have some extras since I am always breaking mine!

I used to get reading glasses at the dollar store, but I didn't know they have distance glasses too? How could they sell those, I thought you need a prescription for that?

I also wear glasses and I also do not like them.I think there are few people only who like to wear glasses when they are required to. I am wearing this since in school.

What kind of place do you live where people are hitting you in the face all the time? I take off my glasses at home because I could go through my place blindfolded and not run into anything. But I wear glasses to drive, to see at school, for work, etc. and even volunteering with animals, so maybe you need some better frames because mine stay on just fine. You could have eye surgery but I wouldn't recommend it if you're still young. I'm waiting until they perfect the surgery a bit more before I risk my eyesight on that.
