Re: Do You Need Glasses?
Finally got glasses like 8 years ago. What finally pushed me over the edge was when I was sitting in the bleachers at Fenway Park and could barely make out the digital scoreboard behind home plate and my friend sitting next to me could read it clear as day.
I've only updated my prescription once, earlier this summer.

Same. I can get by without them if I need to but I'll be squinting and likely have a bad headache.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:Same really. I’m not blind as a bat without them necessarily.

I tried to put them in and failed miserably.

i'm not sure i would be able to physically wear them. i never wore sunglasses b/c i dont like things that close to my eyes. i think i would just squint all the time

I’ve never worn them either. Though lately, while driving on a sunny day, I’ve noticed my eyes get tired from the brightness.Chris_H_2 wrote:you've never worn sunglasses? that would drive me crazy.warehouse wrote:20/20

Re: Do You Need Glasses?
I’m not a fan, but some this summer when the sun was killing my head. I’ve worn them a few times running when it’s bright, but I don’t like wearing them otherwise
