| contact lenses instead of glasses | REGRET INDEX: 0.7a regret index of 1 is ultimate regret this result collects the hard-earned experience of 15 lifetimes of regret permalink to this result commentsGlasses make you look: smarter AND sexier. Disagree, and also: contacts don't get bent out of shape, don't lose screws, also correct peripheral vision, and don't make that damn wibbly-wobbly effect that happens during the adjustment period of glasses and makes it impossible to move your head without falling over. (and: getting a really bad headache, and dizziness, and confusion.) Glasses are easier to clean than contact lenses, don't irritate your eyes further during allergy season, and are less expensive to maintain overall: but conact lenses are harder to scratch during daily wear, don't leave weird marks on your temples if they're too small, and don't interfe with looking through microscopes/telescopes. Surgery: is hella expensive and if you're unlucky the results will be temporary, but damn if it's not the most beautiful thing about one week after when you can see something without a constant window between yourself and the world. I just like doing that thing: where I push my glasses back up my nose and it makes me look pensive I like : having an excuse to wear sunglasses all the time. During a dramatic moment where the camera zooms in on your face, it is incredibly awkward to take out your contacts with a flourish: Not to mention that contacts make impossible the all-time greatest classic moment where the mousey librarian takes off her glasses and lets her down and turns out to be super hot. Guess I just lost... contact: YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
