Spectacles turn hindrance to many activities including swimming, tennis or even dance. Specs restrict any such activity which requires too much movement. Above all, many people do not like wearing specs or even reject marriages if their would-be partner wears specs. In all such cases, doctors recommend contact lens; however, many do not consider them safe.

  1. i love to have green eyes this 2013 but my mother restricted me to have one. because she heard a news that made the girl blind. anyways, my mother often thinks of the worst case scenario. so i just have to follow her.

    I got stuck with glasses…partly because it conceals my humongous under eye bags hehehe. I also don't feel comfortable fidgeting with my eyes so I never really tried contacts. Got used to wearing glasses that one time while playing badminton, I hit it. Good thing it didn't fly off my face. I can still see, though slightly blurred without glasses.

    I didn't know there are contact lenses for sports. I thought it was just plain disposable and extended wear. Shows that I don't know much about this at all. Great info!

  3. I've had my contact lenses since college. Unfortunately, I had to go back to eye glasses since it's too dusty and dry here in NM. Eye-irritant!
