I also wear prescription glasses, but wearing Google Glass 24x7 sounds like a terrible idea to me. Think of it like this: There are all sorts of situations in which it is socially unacceptable to have your phone out. Movies. Funerals. Intimate conversations with loved ones. Having Glass on 24x7 is basically the same as always having your phone out. Sure, maybe it's off and you're not actually looking at the screen while you're having a conversation. But the other person doesn't know that. If you flick your eye to a corner, does that mean you got something in your eye or were you checking a text message? Wearing prescription glasses does not interfere with my ability to establish eye contact and maintain a personal connection with someone. Google Glass does. And, come to think of it, that's really the problem with Glass. There are all sorts of useful situations in which I'd like to have Glass, much as there are all sorts of useful situations in which I'd like to have a smartphone. But I can easily put away the smartphone in the situations where it's socially unacceptable to have it out. It doesn't seem nearly as convenient to do so with Glass.
