SPECACLES

I have needed corrective lenses since I was in third grade and my eyesight has gotten progressively worse throughout my life. I got contacts in 7th grade, but have always had a pair of glasses on the side. My kids make fun of how big they are, but I am sure- just like everything does- they will come back in style.

Here I am in 7th grade with my infamous blue glasses. I was a beauty queen.

This is me (on the left) with my Snow College roommate (who will not be happy with this photo). Again, my kids laugh their heads off at how large our glasses are.

Today I went to pick up these new babies. I like them. They are comfy to wear and I can see really well! I am still adjusting to wearing glasses instead of contacts though. I get really dizzy while driving, but that's probably why the tech told me to wear them for a week to get used to them. They aren't too bad if you can't see how thick they are (even with the ultra thin lenses).

Super Cute Glasses! You look highly sophisticated in the new ones :) I too got glasses when I was in 3rd grade, it was a rough age.

Strange to see how different styles have change over the years. I hated my 80-90's frames, it's so strange they have came back in style.

I think the fact that through your glasses your head is an inch inside your ear (outside of your glasses) is a good indicator of the thickness of the lenses! LOL!
