I recently got some glasses for computer work and reading. Since I was getting a really bad eye strain in my right eye, I decided I better get checked before it got worse. Luckily he said I didn't 'need' them it's just my eyes are opposite short and long sighted. I was in quite annoying pain as it felt like someone was moving my right eye to the right and pulling on the back of my eye!
I decided to go for some glasses as it will help with the strain on my right eye, and OMG how things are so much clearer, I can't describe how detailed things on the screen are now :D.
I used to have to wear glasses when I was reading when I was younger about 10 years old as my eyes used to water whilst reading...
So yes, who here wears glasses? I have French Connection glasses, nothing special on them. £165 from Specsavers.
I would show image but I can't find the lead for camera >.<

I have to wear em but I don't :D:D:D::D::D:D::D
glasses make me look too intelligent you know
that's why I don't think it's funny. 8(
True story
Yeah I've seen the £34 per month payback, looks really nice... but didn't like watching it being done... The way they just use that tool to peel it off.... ERRRRR lol.
What made you go and have it done with only having glasses for a few years?
I decided to have it done mainly for convenience, hate putting in lenses and glasses are a pain when on holiday and at work when doing activities.
in Jan this year (I'm now 24) I went and had an eyetest and bought contact lenses.
I went from living with pretty bad short sightedness to 20/20. Ridiculous change
lol
Not a bother wearing them at all.
I tried contacts for a few months, but they were horrible.
And I don't know why..

soft lenses which last:
1 day
2 weeks
1 month
hard lenses which get fitted for your eyes:
1 year
The cleanest and easiest option is the 1-month lense.
Every night you take it out and put it in a special cleaning solution, they will be clean and fresh in the morning. A pack of lenses for 12 months costs around € 120,-- at least the ones I'm using, there are of course cheaper and more expensive ones.
Lenses are very easy to handle, I for myself don't use a mirror or anything, this can be done while on the way or simply at home.
Usually your eyes will have different dioptres, for example my right eye has -3,75 and my left eye got -3,25, I'm shortsighted. Also the lenses are balancing out my astigmatism.
So you buy a pack of lenses for a year and you just swap em whenever you start feeling them because good lenses won't even be noticed unless they become dirty or dry over time. Also lenses are much more comfortable because they don't limit your FOV unlike glasses, which shrink every picture (try looking at your feet with and without glasses, there's a difference in size because of the special glasscut.
If you have more questions just ask :)
One was to get lenses, but never had knowledge of how it works or process at using it, but was wondering really how much would be payment for it and how is the actual feeling /sight afterwards using them, is it hard to adopt to it and stuffs like that.
Ofc i pay em on my own, social insurance is never gonna take it.
I didn't have any problems with the contacts from the start,
I don't feel em, they don't hurt. However as I tend to keep em in my eyes longer than recommended they dry out sometimes just like today ^^ Also if you are awake for more than 20 hours you start feeling them getting blurry aswell. Just take em out every night and should be np! Not like I do it ;)
Anyway, if you are interested in getting contacts I'd suggest getting to a local seller, they are probably gonna let you try contacts for free, they always have packages for testing purposes / new clients exclusively. That's the way to go.
