Good question, Jabber!

I'm one of those who can't wear 'em. I got my first pair when I was in high school. They were the hard lens type, and I wore them ALL the time. Close to 24/7. I exceeded the recommended number of hours for vanity and the ability to see. Quit wearing 'em in college, when it just became faster to get up in the morning and throw on my glasses before hiking off to class.

Then sometime in my 30s I got fitted with soft lenses, but I just didn't like 'em. They always seemed to either get out of position, or they fell out. Probably not fitted correctly, but they were just too much work.

These days I'm back to the convenience of glasses, though since I got my last pair I find I take 'em off to read books and the paper. Really only use 'em to drive, watch TV or use the computer.

I'm not sure I could get used to having images projected right on my eyes!
