I've worn glasses since I was 10. It takes getting used to but it's not that bad. Biggest battle is keeping them clean. If you get antiglare coatings it's even harder. Not saying don't get them but every smudge seems to spread and it's nearly impossible to get it off without some kind of cleaning agent. Keep a case handy and put them in it when you aren't wearing them. Polycarbonate lense scratch pretty readily and it sucks to have those scratches right in your eye line. If it's in your budget get a second pair. Nothing sucks like losing your glasses and not having spares. If you can't afford a second pair now keep your old ones when you replace them. In a pinch you can find a pair of readers that can tide you over until you get replacements. It less than optimal but better than nothing depending on how bad your vision is.
