Ask those who have no alternative how they put up with it and they will invite you to come over and show you their trophies.
It's a minor inconvenience and no hardship at all. Some of us have no choice in the matter.
I agree with you, Tirod. Furthermore, the “inconvenience” of wearing glasses depends on how you look at it (pun intended).
Before I had LASIK surgery 2 years ago, I’d worn bifocals for better than 30 years. Yeah, at times bifocals were inconvenient for shooting, especially while hunting with a scoped, big game rifle. Although, I don’t know about “fogging” as the only times I had problems with that was when I came in out of the cold.
Anyway, since the surgery the only “corrective” lenses I need are the kinds that come in those $5.00 reading glasses you can find in most any department or drug store. But here’s the flip side – shortly after the surgery, I found myself sitting at my loading bench with two pairs of glasses. I was using one pair for reading the fine print in loading manuals and using another pair (safety glasses) for actually doing the loading. It was the same for working in the yard – one pair of cheap, reading glasses for reading the instructions on the back of a bottle of insecticide and a pair of safety glasses for actually doing the spraying. Wood and carpentry work – same thing. Shooting – same thing. Talk about inconvenient!
So, less than a month after my LASIK surgery, I went back to the eye doctor. I had her give me a prescription for a pair of progressive bifocals with absolutely no correction in the upper lenses and just a little in the lower lenses for reading. And I ask for impact resistant, poly-carbonate lenses.
They work great! I wear them from the time I get up in the morning until I go to bed at night. However, now they need replaced because a couple of weeks ago my big wheel line trimmer flipped something up that put a ding right in the middle of the right lens. It would have put a “ding” in my right eyeball if I had not have been wearing the glasses.
