I wear glasses now, but had contacts for years. When I needed bifocals I went back to glasses. I know, some people with bifocals use contacts, but it wasn't working for me.Myrnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10095830824526766029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3103348536762340189.post-62370261452932273772007-04-26T11:58:00.000-05:002007-04-26T11:58:00.000-05:00I struggled for over two years.

So no, the blonde highligts are not turning you into an air-head, you have probably never seen me with my glasses on because they were old and I hated them. (got a new pair of glasses along with the contacts too, so you may just see me in them now)Frazzled Farm Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10670912081102882168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3103348536762340189.post-49446756587843097072007-04-25T23:19:00.000-05:002007-04-25T23:19:00.000-05:00Oh yeah, "Lauri, where is your blog?

For me, they are easier than glasses because I love wearing sunglasses and those tinted eyeglasses have never worked for me. Once you get used to it, it really becomes second nature. They are now just part of my routine, I can pop them in without a mirror, still sitting on the edge of my bed, lol. Hang in there, it will be worth it!Christie Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10131377798582160855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3103348536762340189.post-37705327126916228162007-04-25T18:08:00.000-05:002007-04-25T18:08:00.000-05:00I agree with the others - it does get better!
