I am basically glasses for life. I remember I started wearing glasses at my latter part of my high school year. At the time, it seems like the coolest thing; I guess it makes you look smart or geeky, however you want to put it. I was fine with wearing glasses for the first year, then I realize it's a pain in the neck. Whenever I play sports, especially basketball, I always seem to break a pair. Luckily then they started to have the hard 'heavy' plastic frame one for sports. For many years, I hated wearing glasses; anyone remember the real big round type. They were Ugly and heavy. Now they have the feather weight type and designer frames.
Ah..the age of the contacts came about. I have never wear them myself, I could not get over the idea of poking items into my eye. I have friends wearing them and they constantly have to keep their contacts moist with drops. What a hassle, I thought. When I saw them play sports with them, it was great. Then the thought comes about the what if someone knocks me in the eye, will the contact break and damage your eye. I guessing probably not, but the thought was enough to say no to contacts.
There is probably convenient to both, but I think you'll agree that you get more selection from glasses than contact lens.
