So....... I had my eyes checked recently. I have a slight astigmatism and am slightly far-sighted. This is pretty much the same diagnosis I had when my eyes were last checked... about 10 years ago. The Dr told me I could get glasses, they would certainly help me see better, but I don't NEED them. All I really need to do is make sure I look away from the computer regularly, or close my eyes for a few seconds, to get my focus back. Its not that I don't notice the astigmatism, its just that it's not so bad as to prevent me from seeing okay (main complaint is that edges can get blurred after focusing for a while).
So I decided to not get the glasses this time... when I go back in 2 years, maybe.
But now my girlfriend has a really cute pair of glasses, and they look really good on me, lol. So I'm sort of tempted to get a pair for vanity's sake... I will admit, I kind of think cool glasses make a person look smarter, and I will hopefully be interviewing for jobs soon so I can use all the first-impression help I can get.
DH thinks I'm crazy. lol.
What do you guys think, do glasses-wearers come across differently? And I mean cool glasses, lol, not my mother's bi-focals.
