I Wear Glasses

Are you one
SW-User Best Comment
I got them for the first time this year. I was holding out for 20/20 in 2020.

The optometrist suggested that I just get readers From a drug store but at least I knew which strength ti get.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@SW-User What strength was recommended? Are they helping, I hope?
SW-User
@Fauxmyope2 2.25. Yes they help for reading little things. Plus I like whipping them off for effect to emphasize my expression of surprise at things people say.

It sounds like I have the opposite correction from yours. I can see ok on dark and stormy nights.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@SW-User We do have opposite +and - but your numbers are much higher.

SW-User
Men in glasses 🤓 look more attractive to me.
SW-User
They have to be attractive first, of course. The glasses are just a plus 😆

Nudistsue26 · 31-35, F
I had cataract surgery on both eyes. I know I'm young for that. I was told I only need readers because my far vision is good
Nudistsue26 · 31-35, F
@Fauxmyope2 No. They developed over the years I guess. Y eye sight let getting worse.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Nudistsue26 Even after surgery?
Nudistsue26 · 31-35, F
@Fauxmyope2 I can't type on this phone. Lol. My eye site got worse as I got older. I had the surgery on both eyes. They will never be a hundred percent but won't get cataracts anymore.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@JoeyFoxx I will readily admit to that. I always wanted glasses, love getting them finally, and get turned on wearing mine after feigning the need for my weak prescription.
I have perfect vision.

But in junior high, I wanted fashion frames without prescription. They actually suited me.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@SethGreene531 I am glad to hear that. I will hold you to it.
@Fauxmyope2 Lol...alright I'll post a frames selfie if it all works out.

Glasses gives a few an authoritative look.
Alex51 · 61-69, M
@Fauxmyope2 For a teacher glasses are ideal.it gives them an authority
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Alex51 I teach severely autistic students. I learned quickly to not wear then on class.
Alex51 · 61-69, M
@Fauxmyope2 sorry
Bklynbadboy12 · 31-35, M
No I'm not that lucky I actually wear glasses cause I have too
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Bklynbadboy12 I have tried several things to no avail.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Fauxmyope2 try double masking. Generally fogging means exhaled, breath is escaping in an upward blast. Fool with nose clips and wears cloth mask on top of a surgical/N95 type mask.
Bklynbadboy12 · 31-35, M
@Fauxmyope2 I'll show you the ones I have they work really well
jerMIguy · 36-40, M
By the way, you look really pretty in your glasses! :)
jerMIguy · 36-40, M
@Fauxmyope2 I’m having trouble not imaging you standing at the foot of my bed...holding your glasses...teasing your lips with the temple tip...and then putting them on properly and taking control...

Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@jerMIguy Mmmmn!
jerMIguy · 36-40, M
@Fauxmyope2 I think you need this for a wall hanging...


Maybe in your classroom?
JoeyFoxx · 51-55, M
This is, without question, one of the most peculiar fetishes I have witnessed here.

It’s not wrong or strange, just peculiar.

I do wear glasses and I tend to think I of them as mostly functional, though I suppose they can be fashionable
I think my days of revving people up, intentionally, are over. But I WILL say, you look great in your glasses. I really like them. 🤓
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@PhoenixPhail Thank you for making my night.
@Fauxmyope2 I'm so glad I commented, and that you feel good about it. 🤗

@CowGirlFan Thank you for thinking this way.
CowGirlFan · 70-79, M
@Fauxmyope2 And thank YOU for thinking this way, as well... and for starting this post. You have no idea how HOT, sexy and... classy you ladies look in Glasses. I just wish I could convey that to you. And there are so many frame styles for women out there today that are "in style" that drive me nuts... in a good way. And if that photo is you, or reflective of the frame styles you are currently wearing... "Holy Knock Out, Batman!!!" I'm yours for the taking... :)
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@CowGirlFan It’s me and thank you.

I wear glasses also. For distance.
Would prefer contact lenses but had a detached retina.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Teslin Mine are for distance too.

bikelover · 51-55, M
Do you wear glasses all the time ?
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@bikelover I don’t wear them when I teach or shop. Why? They fog up when I wear my masks. We have to mask up in school and in my state, we have been strongly encouraged to wear masks when publicly indoors.
bikelover · 51-55, M
@Fauxmyope2 yeah I had that problem with a mask ,, luckily I don’t wear one for work
Tastyfrzz · 61-69, M
My prescription is quite high. I'm very near sighted. I remember getting my first pair of glasses in third grade and suddenly being able to see street signs. If you don't know what you're missing you don't miss it but in this case the feeling was overwhelming. I just wish that they didn't scratch so easily.

Nice glasses 👓. ☺️

@SW-User Thank you!

Very welcome 😀@Fauxmyope2
jackson55 · M
Glasses are either lost or dirty. I could live without em. I don’t consider them a fashion statement.
jackson55 · M
@Fauxmyope2 I need glasses to read especially in low light. Otherwise I don’t need em.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@jackson55 It sounds like your eyesight is excellent.
jackson55 · M
@Fauxmyope2 Not like when I was 20, but can’t complain.
Gentlequill · 51-55, M
I have astigmatism in my left eye. I've been told that my glasses with these baby blues are lady killers.😀
MtnManJohn · 56-60, M
@Fauxmyope2 Your sexy glasses accentuate your sparkling green eyes beautifully.
Echambers101 · 26-30, M
so if I said I wanted to make love with glasses on only
Noclue · 56-60, M
Do you wear tinted or clear glasses?

@Noclue My lenses are clear.

When I was about 7 I wanted to wear them just because I saw Bratz glasses when I first when for my eye test and I got upset when I found out I didn’t need them as I only wanted them because they was bratz style. I needed glasses for reading when I turned 8 but then I only wore them at home as I was too scared to wear them at school. It’s weird as I hated wearing them after that. I have about 10 Pairs as my dad forced me to go every year to get them checked as I got sent letters every year , some are broken and when I was younger I ended up sitting on them or crushing them when fighting with other kids as I kept them in my coat pocket , my friends always wanted to try them on when they came to my house , my first pair I broken within a day of having them and I remember sitting on the stairs with a piece of the rod in my hand and I was so scared as my dad was shouting and swearing at me and I nearly laughed as I thought it was funny how I managed to break them straight away.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@SW-User I could picture that. Glasses are expensive. How did you read when you were at school if you hid them and refused to wear them?
SW-User
@Fauxmyope2 I could read but I had a lot of headaches as my eyes worked harder than they should have done that’s what the optician told me. They was mainly so I got less eye strain.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@SW-User Did you eventually start wearing them in school?
SW-User
I was born with amblyopia (lazy eye)...Got hit in both eyes numerous times with rocks, baseballs, fists, etc. growing up...Was diagnosed with glaucoma at 30 years of age..

Dr. said reason for glaucoma so early in life could have been due to the scarring in back of the eye from the trauma down through those years....Paying for it now..

Still don't wear glasses except to read books,computer screen..Never have.

Biggest disappointment was the amblyopia caused me to have around 20/200 in the lazy eye, and could not be corrected with glasses.
Disappointing because I wanted to join the U.S. Marine Corps out of high school...Wouldn't take me because of that one eye problem.. very disappointing at that time.
SW-User
@Fauxmyope2 Thank you..As progressive as glaucoma is, I surely hope the eyes hold out...almost 65 now...time will tell...Good post Fauxmyope..👍️
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@SW-User I hope that they do too. Thank you for reading it and sharing.
SW-User
@Fauxmyope2 Welcome 🧐😊
Gillian · 46-50, T
Yes it sounds like me. I always loved glasses, how they looked and always thought people who wear glasses are really attractive. I always wanted my own.

When I was in my 20's, my dad went for a cataract operation, I had my eyes tested and they were perfect 😔 Even though my parents both wore glasses and I was told I'd have problems seeing at night. I've gone for some tests (driving, regular health checks, etc) since then, and even now at 42, my eyes are still pretty good.

I'm surrounded by people who wear glasses and they all hate having to wear them. To each their own I guess.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Gillian I have glasses now and LOVE them.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Gillian You might need readers someday.
Gillian · 46-50, T
@Fauxmyope2 That's something to look forward to. lol. Although, at the same time, I hope that day doesn't come too? I'm just happy that my eyes are still good despite my parents having needed glasses and all my years playing games and watching TV.
CowGirlFan · 70-79, M
I'm one of those guys who finds glasses on a woman intensely sexy and beyond that... a major attraction factor. If a woman is wearing glasses, I'm going to look at, and check her out.
But I've found that many women who don't wear glasses know this about guys and have a pair in their purse that have just clear lenses in them, No prescription at all, so that they can slip them on whenever they feel that librarianesque feeling come over them and want to tease those mystery guys out there that are putty when they see a woman wearing them. So... all these years, you didn't have to wait.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@CowGirlFan TY! I love wearing my glasses. Your comment was so nice to read. 😊
ABCDEF7 · M
Please don't risk your eye sight by unnecessary wearing glasses. If you feel to have a comfortable and good looking personality while wearing glasses, you can get a zero power glasses for the purpose.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
It @ABCDEF7 I wish that it would. It hasn’t though. 😞
ABCDEF7 · M
@Fauxmyope2 Thanks for the hug and Take care..
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@ABCDEF7 You’re welcome and you too.
TakingBackMidgard · 26-30, M
Even with perfect eyes you can have frames with Plano’s in them. Or if you want sunglasses you can have them made with no script.

It’s very common for people to want a good pair of sunglasses made. You can even bring in your own frame to places like Eyemart Express.

I usually recommend a special order for Mirrored Polycarbonate AR lenses as they will do the best to protect your eyes sun glass wise.

But it never hurts to have them checked first.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@TakingBackMidgard I love getting eye exams.

I had no interest in Plano lenses.
...did you not realize that you get glasses and wear them without corrective lenses? There are people who, for a living, play pretend, and they use alterations to "create a character", and glasses are one prop which is sometimes desired or required, even for those without them. 😉😆

If you want to understand lenses, you could look at the optics section of, say, the older (but more information-packed) [i]Physics[/i] undergraduate text by Halliday & Resnick (it is in Part Two of the 2-part version), or the newer [i]Fundamentals of Physics[/i] by Halliday, Resnick & Walker.

Or just look up the "thin lenses" or the lense maker's equation, which relates the focal length of a lense to the location of the object & image. There is not much to it, but it shows you how real & virtual images work (real ones are those formed by light going through the image, such as images you see through eyeglasses; virtual ones do not, such as, e.g., the image you see in a mirror, which is not actually formed "back there", feet behind the plane of the mirror).

The equation is

[i]1/i + 1/o = 1/f[/i]

where [i]o, i[/i] are the distances to the 'o'bject and 'i'mage, respectively, and [i]f[/i] is the focal length of the lense.

For a mirror, [i]f[/i] -> infinity, so

[i]1/i + 1/o = 0,[/i] or

[i]1/i = -1/o,[/i] so

[i]o = -i[/i]

Since the object distance is real (as you stand in front of the mirror, light actually DOES bounce off you before going toward the mirror),

[i]o > 0[/i]

so the image distance is

[i]i < 0[/i]

and the image is virtual (because no actual light is passing through the image of you which looks like it is "inside" the mirror).

@Fauxmyope2 Mine too! You have to be the sweetest eye glasses model, that I ever saw! Just know, you are so very special to me and you now have a new friend. Thank you, so much! Replying to your post, was the best thing I have done, in quite a while. I loved your new pic!🤓🌹
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Oster1 Did you notice that your whiteboard had an addition?
Oster1 · M
@Fauxmyope2 I did get the notice. Excitedly, I’m going there now! I let the anticipation build a little, to add to the enjoyment.🤓
Jeffrey53 · 51-55, M
I’ve been wearing glasses since I was 5 years old. I’ve broken many along the way. I had 3 eye surgeries between ages 4-7 I didn’t really like wearing them when growing up. Lot of people treat you different. I still wear them.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Jeffrey53 Do you enjoy freaking them out?
Jeffrey53 · 51-55, M
@Fauxmyope2 not really makes me uncomfortable when they stare
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Jeffrey53 I am glad that your glasses help you.
Animal · 70-79, M
You suit them very well. Very nice! I always wanted glasses from an early age probably because my parents both wore glasses. They both used to work in my dad's shop every Saturday and I was left at home. I would get my dad's spare pair of glasses and wear them all day, even out on my bike. Weird I know, but the thrill I got from it was indescribable for a young teenager.
In my 20s I developed progressive astigmatism and now wear varifocals full-time and love them.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Animal Thank you and I share your love with wearing glasses.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
I started wearing them in high school. I have only astigmatism, so I only had to squint and I passed vision exams. I will never forget my feeling when I first put on glasses, Itbeas like suddenly seeing in high-definition.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@samueltyler2 As you know, eyesight fascinates me. If I wasn’t a teacher, I think that I would have enjoyed the medical profession, like my sister, and become an opthalmologist.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Fauxmyope2 why is it so fascinating?
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@samueltyler2 I think that it is because I always envied my friends that wore glasses in MS, HS, and undergrad.
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
I hate wearing them and I plan to have lasik eye surgery as soon as I can.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@DearAmbellina2113 I am sorry that you hate wearing your glasses. You look great in them though.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
I got my first at age 16, my problem was and still is primarily astigmatism. I am much older now and just got glasses made to wear during bandvrehearsaksvand concerts. This is the first time I can see both music and conductor. It is as if I'm now see in high definition!
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Fauxmyope2 they have already. I showed them to other band members and Costco will probably be selling a bunch more as a result.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@samueltyler2 I hope you are working on commission.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Fauxmyope2 just on verbal thanks!
CoolInferno · 31-35, M
If ur DP is really u, then ur looks so damn cute in glasses.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@CoolInferno TY and it is me.
No, I was an actual myopic person, not a false myopic person. It was not considered wonderful, amazing, magical, desirable, sexy as an elementary school child at that time, in semi-rural Michigan.

I wonder if you had other things which fed into your--to me--quite strange obsession; a favorite grandfather, etc., who wore them...?

It is disturbing to thing that you wanted to have weaker eyes. The only good thing is that my eyes have been saved from damage on a few occasions through having had glasses.

My eyesight has always been rather poor. I do not recommend it, and hope yours stays good, though starting down the slope of hoping to have a weakened sense seems like a harbinger of...well...not good.

Would you have wished for the proper injury if you had thought wheelchairs were "cool"?

I just can't imagine healthy young people pining to be weakened...and actively doing things to appear so.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@SomeMichGuy My glasses have not had any impact on my eyesight. If anything, my distance vision has become even more extraordinary.
Oster1 · M
I too, love wearing glasses. Most of the time they are on the end of my nose where I can look over them. I remember when I first got them and they were the classic black frame ones. I never even thought of contact lenses. I just like the look of wearing them. As I’ve aged, I do rely more on them to read and when I drive, I use the same glasses but it’s a lower prescription. I would love to see you, wearing yours.☺️🌷

I am sorry that you lost your perfect eyesight due to the blockage. Fortunately, you look fantastic in glasses. 😊

iamnikki · 31-35, F
Didn't read all of this but I've worn glasses since 10. Wanted contacts as a teen, got them and they didn't work out.
Now I like wearing glasses. Face decoration. Look better with them.maybe because I rarely see my face without them
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@iamnikki I am glad that you like wearing your glasses. I was two months away from 23 when It got my first prescription.

Sadly, my glasses fog up horribly while I am masked up. I have an incredibly weak prescription so I haven’t worn my glasses for weeks.
iamnikki · 31-35, F
@Fauxmyope2 you're lucky. It was no fun getting your glasses knocked off during dodgeball, kickball, and while running on playground. Nor was it fun digging thru the cafeteria trash can because you accidentally threw away your glasses along with your styrofoam food tray( those really happened) 😆

To combat the fog, put your glasses on top of the mask.
Someone had to show me that
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@iamnikki I must have a weird mask. Actually, Ihave tried several kinds to no avail. I have done that and they fog up with every breath.

I am glad that it works for you.

TY!
As Grannie (the wolf) said to "Little Red Riding Hood"... "the better to see you with." Your glasses are very stunning in appearance. I too have far-sighted.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@theexciting1 Do you legally need your glasses for driving?
@Fauxmyope2 No, not legally which means that when I took an eye chart test at DMV...I could see well enough to pass. I should wear them anyway to avoid eye strain.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@theexciting1 Your eyesight sounds like it is pretty good.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Gillian In that case, que sera sera.

JRVanguard · 26-30, M
I was given glasses when I joined the military but I haven’t worn any since
I’m just not comfortable with them(although I should probably be wearing them cause I seem to be impaired when it comes to far away things)
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@JRVanguard Can you even pass your DMV vision test without them?
JRVanguard · 26-30, M
@Fauxmyope2 Luckily I already passed it😅
Cause I’m not so sure I could now
trackman11 · 61-69, M
No. I hated glasses. Partly just a pain to keep track of. Finally got contacts in my mid twenties.
I would cheat on my eye exam the opposite way but would make my driving dangerous. Lol
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@trackman11 You wanted weaker lenses than you needed?

😊. I just wanted glasses. My glasses are extremely weak but still too strong for my eyes.
trackman11 · 61-69, M
@Fauxmyope2 I just didn’t want glasses. As good as you probably look in glasses, I looked equally goofy in mine. 😀

My grandparents and my parents wore glasses so it was only a matter of time before I had to wear them and that happened in my late 20`s. 🙄
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Fauxmyope2 For both they`re bifocals.
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Degbeme Were your first pair of glasses bifocals? Mine are not.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Fauxmyope2 No my first ones weren`t bifocals. But age caught up with me. 🙄
Quizzical · 46-50, M
I could do with some new ones 🤔
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@Quizzical Thank you!
@Fauxmyope2 My eye doctor gave me the prescription and I took it to a Costco glasses center. They made me 1 regular pair of glasses and 1 prescription pair of sunglasses. For a good price.:)
Fauxmyope2 · 26-30, F
@theexciting1 Nice! I hope that you are happy with both pairs.

My prescription has expired in December. I need to get my eyes examined again. 😦
