I could wear contacts if I wanted to, but glasses look good on me and hide a scar that I have on my nose and eye. I keep thinking that I should probably just do a Drew Carey. Get contacts and put non prescription lenses in my frames.
Glasses can be an inconvenience with vr glasses, ski goggle, helmets, face masks, night driving, etc.
Honestly, I think contacts are the best option. The Zeiss lenses move the headset slightly heavier and worse move it further away from your face creating a lever action amplifying the weight issue.
You can still wear glasses. Just don't put a prescription in them.
Personally I love my glasses and have never tried contacts, but I think I'll switch to contacts when this product category is more mature.
Can you do laser correction? If so, that seems even better than the contacts situation.
LASIK is a great option, especially if you're younger. A lifetime of contacts and glasses adds up.
