First, I think it's no big deal if you need glasses--I have tender feet and can only go barefoot indoors so what's the difference? My grandson wears his glasses all the time because he doesn't see well without them.
I only wear my glasses when I drive and other than legally I wouldn't need them for that unless I were lost in a strange area. I've always gone without them unless I feel a need.
It's been a long-running argument with eye care folks, because they put me through an exam and swear I need glasses to read, etc. One lady was so adamant she put a magazine in front of me and said, "Read this then!" I did, with no problem. She said there was no way I should be able to do that, which I found funny.
Now that I'm ancient, I do need help to read extra-fine print but that's all. Overall, my vision has improved from 10 years ago and I can read the small print on ESPN, etc., from across the room.
