I've been wearing glasses for nearly 8 years. My first pair of glasses were kinda big but now they're smaller and more stylish. And no, I do not look like a stereotypical nerd, I look like a rocker/gamer nerd if that makes sense at all.
if you have a mullet, its prefectly sensable.

Ive had contacts for about a year now. My vision without them isnt THAT bad. Imagine, if you will, that everything that i see has a photoshop "blur" effect added to it

Been wearing glasses since the 3rd grade (before I had my first computer). My left eye has almost perfect vision, but my right eye is badly near-sighted. Thus, I wear these "spectacles."

I have reading glasses, but I maybe wore them once. Not that I dont read, I just dont use them.

I don't think using reading glasses just to read fine print makes your eye sight worse. I can read the paper, magazines no problem.

I know they used to say don't sit too close to the tv it can make your eyesight worse, If that were true I would think sitting in front of a monitor could damage your eyes too, who knows? lol
