I have a decision to make: whether or not to wear my glasses during the wedding. Ever since I had surgery to correct cataracts in my eyes, I’ve had fake lenses implanted in them. One eye is nearsighted, and the other is farsighted. This makes for quite the pain when it comes to getting glasses because I have bi-focals. In my right eye, the top part of the lens is nearsighted and the bottom is farsighted to correct my vision. Vice-versa for the left eye. This means I have FOUR different prescriptions for two eyes.
I was told by my opthamologist that I can’t wear contacts because they will badly scratch my artificial lenses.
Even if I could, I could only imagine how thick those contacts would be! So, that leaves me wearing rectangular tortoise shell glasses every day of my life. Oh well, no biggie.
My question is, should I not wear glasses in the wedding pics? Or maybe I should get a fancier, possibly rimless pair of glasses to wear during the wedding - to allow me to actually see Mr. Kiwi when I walk up the aisle! I could take pictures with and without, so I really have my choice of which ones to keep.
These rimless pair caught my eye: They are by Chanel, as you can see by the interlocking cs.

These are by Prada and also very cute:

Question number two: Mr. Kiwi has glasses that he wears at night. During the day he is a Coach Extraordinaire, who wears contacts so as to not have things flying at his face shatter glass in his eyes. Makes sense. The question is, I love Mr. Kiwi in glasses - he looks incredibly sexy. Should I ask him to take some pictures with the glasses on so we could have a few of us with glasses on, glasses off, mix it up with a little bit of both… What do you think?
Those of you with glasses, are you wearing them during the wedding?
Is Lasik a possibility at all? My mom gave me surgery as a wedding gift! It was the greatest thing not having to wear contacts or glasses walking down the aisle!
If you wear glasses, though, I say take pics with and without, and ditto your hubby, since you love him with them on. The caveat re pics with glasses, though, is glare, so watch out for that.
Personally, I’d probably prefer your tortoise shells over the rimless!
