It was in 8th grade. I took a routine eye examine and they said I needed glasses. It wasn't until I was in my mid-20s that I started wearing them full-time though. I held out as long as I could because I couldn't really afford nice ones and I hated wearing them. Because I basically had the opposite prescription in my eyes, it was like I had built in bifocals and could just shift between them depending on what I was looking at (near vs. far). But, driving at night and in the rain got to be a real challenge and I realized I was going to hurt someone else if I didn't do the right thing. Unfortunately, I don't qualify for LASIK or some of the alternatives due to the nature and the causes of my vision impairment. Fortunately, I don't need to wear coke bottles and stylish glasses have become more affordable.
