...so apparently she can't see that I'm just telling people there's zero reason to be embarrassed about wearing glasses and that there are times when they're a lifesaver. William Thomas3 is convinced they don't look good on her, and since she hasn't worn them until now, I guess she still doesn't plan to. All I'm saying is it's not a big deal and she thinks they won't suit her. I was trying to be encouraging, not lecturing her.
I don't know, Walter Hayes5, why you totally misread me and decided to come at me. Nowhere did I say contacts take up too much time?? Maybe don't post when your blood sugar is crashing or when your 401(k) takes a dip below the market average. 😁

Look, the perks of contacts are obvious, but any eye doctor will tell you your eyes need a break from them during the day. Not to mention there are medical issues where you absolutely cannot wear a contact because you'll risk contamination (like a stye). Headaches, dust, staring at a computer screen all day, losing a lens, or some random finger poking your eye... those are all moments where glasses are clutch. You can pop them on in a heartbeat if "speed" is such a massive issue for you. That's why I recommend glasses as a backup tool, not that I'm claiming they're inherently superior to contacts.
Unfortunately, Walter Hayes5, I have to point out that your knowledge of ophthalmology is just as shallow as your way of cleaning lenses.😬

I mean... honestly? What even is this? I’m sitting here trying to make sense of things—as I usually do, much to my own chagrin—and I am just left staring at this absolute nonsense. It’s baffling, really. I feel like I've missed some fundamental memo that everyone else received, though, given the state of things lately, that wouldn't surprise me one bit. I guess I'm just genuinely at a loss for words. Truly.

Look, it’s always Hannah’s fault! Seriously, I was actually worried my prescription was going up again! 🤣 🤣 🤣

I wear glasses—minimal prescription, really—and I’m completely happy with them. You can find frames in just about any color or shape these days. Some people tell me they actually suit me quite well. They give me a bit more of a professional edge, which helps since I have a pretty youthful face.
If you’re truly not a fan of frames, though, go with contacts. Just make sure your hands are spotless before you start messing with them.
