14 years old when I put on someone's glasses :')


-1.75

-3.00 (right) -3.25(left) Probably worse now

When Im at home or can't be bothered putting lenses in

[cesca42]

I think I was 14. Pretty sure it was in year 9, so 14 sounds about right.

-0.25 in my left eye, -0.50 in my right eye.

-1.00 in my left, -2.00 in my right.

As a general rule, I wear my contacts on weekdays, glasses on weekends, but I like to mix it up a bit sometimes XD

9 years old ish?

4. When do you wear your glasses?
All the time; contacts on special occasions, but have dry eyes so can't wear them for too long at a time - even with "dry eye" contact lenses!

[aeyurttaser13]

[Tabers]

1. When did you find out you needed to wear glasses?
7 years old I think. We had a nurse come into school and do our checks and I was told then that I needed them. No one had picked up on it before. They just thought I sat at the front of the class because I liked it there. I didn't know that what I saw was different to what everyone else saw.
2. What was your prescription then?
I don't know but I was amazed when I looked through them for the first time. It was like a whole different world. I could see the signs in the supermarket and see the bricks in the buildings when I was not next to them.
3. What is it now?
Worse than they were but they haven't changed for a year or two. I have problems seeing the top letter on the letter chart thing.
4. When do you wear your glasses?
All the time

[Em_Huong]

I think I was about 9, but didn't actually get glasses until I was 12 or something, because I didn't want to have to wear them lol No idea what my prescription was back then, probably like -1.50, but now it's -3.50. I wear contacts mostly when I have to leave my house, if I'm just staying at home then I'll wear glasses.

[randomguy786]

Pretty interesting to find out that most people needed them at 9-12ish. I think I'm one of the only people who needed to get glasses at 18!

[Jack93o]

during the occasional check-ups, doesnt everyone under the age ot 18 have these?
