I am farsighted so when I had contacts in, everything close to my face looked clear but I couldn't see anything more than a foot from face I see best with my bi-focals

Fortunately no. LASIK 6 years ago absolutely changed my life.

Fortunately no. LASIK 6 years ago absolutely changed my life.

I had lasik and I loved it, or about 12-13 years then my eyes changed, and needed eye wear again

Wore contacts for 15 years, age 20 to age 35. Having kids who brought every virus home from school just made it more trouble than it was worth so went back to glasses.
Thought about LASIK, but know a few people who had a bad outcome, and most all of them end up with at least reading glasses after age 50 anyway. I don't think I know anyone who has the mono vision done, so not sure how well that works.
At my age, and working all day on a computer, I have trifocal progressives, so mono vision would be useless anyway since I need 3 corrections, close, medium and distance.

In glasses since 4th. grade. Never tried contacts.

 

[disneychrista]

No but I should.

 

[marthachick]

1 contact. In my left eye. It's that or bifocal contacts. Nope, not going to do that!

 

[minniecarousel]

Wore contacts for years. Had LASIK done 6 months ago. I'm in the 55+ age range and have always been far-sighted in one eye and near-sighted in the other. So I had monovision done and I love it!! I'm in the "wish I'd done it sooner" camp.

 

[superme80]

Both. Contacts during the day and glasses when my eyes get tired.

Regular to bi-focal to tri-focal to progressive-did not work-back to tri-focal and now progressive that are working well.

Journey began 54 years ago.

 

[Disneylover99]

No contacts or glasses.

The eye doctor marvels at my vision for my age.

 

[mamamary]

Glasses for reading.

 

[Meriweather]

reading glasses only

 

[bigbabyblues]

Glasses. I wore contacts for a few years but had trouble with them.

 

[Pugsly]

Glasses. Severe eye dryness means no contacts for me.

 

[disney212]

Glasses but only when driving, nearsighted. I cant put eye drops in so no contacts for me.

 

[tennisfan]

Glasses for reading or when I use the computer for long periods
