I've had glasses since I was ten years old, contacts since my early twenties. I am, they say, severely myopic. That's short-sighted. Really, really short-sighted. Unless you are a few inches from my face, you're blurry.
Show us the first thing you see in the morning.

While my boobs or my pillow (depending on how I've slept) are likely the real first things I see when I wake up, for years the first thing I have done upon waking is to my glasses on.
I wore contacts for almost 10 years, but have recently gone back to wearing specs pretty much full-time, and am enjoying the experience much more with the advances in technology (thank you Nikon) that have slimmed my lenses down considerably. I used to hate the weight of my glasses, and now, that's not any issue. I love these ones perhaps even more than the ones they replaced.
My only real wish is that I could look over the rims of my glasses to scowl at you, and actually see your reaction.
Nearly blind without their glasses people of the world, unite! If we can see each other, that is. I've worn glasses since I was two.
