Glasses have for a long time been the only way to see better if your eyes were less than optimal. They provide better vision at the cost of money that your insurance likely does not want to spend on you anymore as just about everybody is visually impaired to done degree these days. So why settle for antiquity when there are more aesthetically pleasing alternatives out there these days? Glasses are BS and I am going to explain why.

The first thing is obvious to anybody using glasses - they get scratched at some point and almost always end up dusty. This is an absolutely bothersome aspect of the glasses wearing lifestyle. Every other day extensive maintainance procedures are required which many people in our modern society simply cannot afford to waste their time on. Glasses, after all these years, still don’t clean themselves.

There is more however - most people simply have bad taste in picking the style of glasses they wear. Here is a hint to all you people shopping for glasses: get ones that don’t look like those cheesy military standard issue models or ones that make you look like Steve Urkel. All too often do I come across such tripe, which should have ended it’s reign of perpetual eye soring a long time ago.

Clearly people with any common sense will wear contacts to avoid humiliation or if money (or credit) is present the option exists to undergo laser corrective eye surgery, which thanks to modern technology has a high rate of success. Why bother with constant eye maintenance when you can get all that trouble over with in a day and fix everything. Doing so will free up valuable time which you could be spending with your family or getting work done. Not to mention the long term cost saving from not having to replace glasses or contacts.

For those who don’t want surgery contacts are understandable and they give people a cleaner appearance - especially when matched by executive style clothing. Not to mention custom contacts can be used as fashion statements on their own merit. It is really incredible why anybody would bother with wearing the antiques known today as glasses given the convenient and modern alternatives to said ritual. When we get a flat tire we don’t attach another tire to the vehicle - instead we fix the tire. The same should apply to anything that goes wrong in our bodies. We are at the pinnacle of human achievement and it would be an embarrassment to all those before us if we didn’t take advantage of the resources and technologies available to us in massive quantities and variety today. Wearing glasses is bullshit and anybody and everybody who wears them knows this fact - whether they are conciously aware of it or not. It can only be said that we will resolve this issue entirely when it becomes available to us the technology to replace our eyes entirely with synthetic ones, allowing us to customize our vision to our needs and personal tastes.
