    People will come to work and say “oh sorry, I can’t read that since I’m not wearing my glasses” and I’m like “why would you go anywhere without glasses if you need glasses?” I just don’t understand it.

      actually, they do bring glasses with them all the time, they just straight up refuse to wear them

        Keep in mind that depending on the type of eye issue they may not need them all the time. In this example the person only needs then to read and it might actually make their vision worse to wear them when not.

          the thing is, even when they need to read something, they just squint their eyes and whine about how they can’t see without glasses then ask others to read it for them instead of idk, PUTTING ON THE DAMN GLASSES that are RIGHT ON THE FUCKING TABLE. Why did you think I said they REFUSE to wear glasses?

      As someone who suffers from migraines, allodynia, and chronic pain, wearing glasses all the time isn’t an option.

      During the mandated mask times, I didn’t wear mine because they would fog up while wearing a mask.
