this might be a strange thread but does anyone wear glasses that does not need them? i personally do not need glasses but i like wearing them. I was thinking of buying a pair of non prescription glasses. whenever i wore a pair of someones glasses, i noticed that i got a lot of compliments on appearance. I was also told that i look smarter. i just personally like the way i like with glasses... Does this sound far-fetched or does anyone else do this?

i wear glasses maybe 75% of the time, and contact lenses otherwise. or sometimes just stumble around my flat with neither, blind as fuck. but i don't know if there is any difference with how people view me.

I know what you mean, I like the way I look with glasses a whole lot more than without. When I first started wearing them I got a ton of compliments. I wear them because I need them though, I'm blind as hell.

It could be because i've had to wear glasses the last 15 years, but I pretty much hate wearing my glasses because they're not practical to wear during the day. I'd rather wear my contacts so I can wear good sunglasses, and not those clip-on deals. However when I wear my glasses on rare occasions I get compliments, but I think it's because my friends never see me wear them.

When I was younger I always wanted to wear glasses. I don't know why, I guess I liked the way they look too. But I was told I look like a fruit cake with glasses hahaha

Just get some sunglasses with very low UV protection, they will look just like prescription glasses with a slight tint, and have a slight util value.

$1500 for both. I figure I spend at least $200 a year on contacts and when I buy glasses they usually cost anywhere between $400-$600. So they way I look at it I'll end up saving money over the long haul.
Everyone I know absolutly raves about it too.

They put a big metal clamp around you eyeball to keep it still, and then run a metal cog device over your pupil to scrape a "flap" of your eye off and then the laser is prejected into the "hole" then the flaps plopped down again, and what they dont tell you is you have to wear some funny bandages for 3 weeks after
Oh and a "sucessfull" operation means your eyes are "better" than when you went in, ie if your short sighted you could come out long sighted and theres nothing you could do about it
Oh and also you cant ever wear contact lenses again after youve had the operation...
All these things they dont tell you on the adverts

I got some fucking pimp armani glasses. They make me look fuck loads more mature, and girls think they're hot.
The best part is that when girls are used to my glasses, I take them off and they think I'm even more hot. Hahahha. Stupid girls. I'm glad I've got a hunnie and don't worry about all the others.
