I have issues with my eyes and can't wear contacts. So I don't have much choice. Years ago I tried contacts for a while and hated them. They were such a hassle and even after 4-5 months I could never get used to them being in my eyes.
Now I have cataracts, so eventually I'll get permanent new lenses put in my eyes and I might get by with not having any correction at all.

I prefer glasses...although it's a bit inconvenient because I like to wear sunglasses and I have to wear prescription ones to avoid being completely blind, I prefer that over physically putting something on my eyeball.
Plus I'm 27 and have been glasses since I was about 8...so I'm used to them.
Also, I like the look. :)
I switch between them. It just depends on how I'm feeling or how lazy I am (then I mostly put on my glasses). But mostly I wear my contacts because my glasses tend to get in the way when I'm working. My glasses are more comfortable for my eyes after a long day, so they both have their benefits.
At home or if I'm in a long journey where I have to sleep:
Glasses because they are more comfortable.
At school or outside: Contacts..
of course they shouldn't be worn more than 8 hours,
after that the eyes would feel tired.
But I prefer contacts. ^-^
I don't advice anybody to wear the colored ones though.
You and your polls:p I don't need either, but if I did I'd go with contacts.

Glasses.
Contacts are dangerous :( I've heard so many terrible lab stories (chemical in eye with contacts=bad) And also contacts are a really great way to get an infection.
Plus I don't have the money or patience to constantly buy contacts.
Glasses are more economical, to me at least.I only chose glasses because I've been wearing contacts since elementary school and they're simple and stylish. I've tried contacts before and they're pretty difficult for me. I do look better without my glasses though. I plan on getting laser eye surgery in the near future.
I've never hae to wear glasses or contacts although contacts might make someone look more attractive by showing off their eyes but contacts can be dangerous to wear as well I think wearing glasses is a much safer option there's lots of cool styles of glasses around that can make you look classy :)
I loathe contacts...seriously like not having to wear glasses, but my contacts act up so badly sometimes. I'm considering getting Lasik sometime in the near future. Glasses do make me feel smart and nerdy though ha ha and they are comfortable/never give me eye issues.
Love the contacts... it has a more 360 degree view, as in you can see everything all around clearly unlike the window effect in the spectacles. However, I do find it kinda scary putting the lenses in... I just fear that I might squish my eyes for some reason. :P
I wish that I didn't have to wear either.. they are both a pain.
But I like contacts better.. mainly because of the look factor.
I don't mind wearing glasses and they look fine on me.. I just don't care to that much.I've gotten so used to my glasses it's not even funny. I feel like there's this wall between me and the world and if it's not there, not only will I become road kill but I will feel extremely uncomfortable.
I'm gonna go with glasses, since right now, I have glasses that look really nice lol, but my eyesight isn't that bad so I barely wear them. No opinion on contact lenses since I've never had them before, but they do look quite uncomfortable and seem like a hassle lol
Glasses.
I don't like touching my eyes all the time for contacts.
The only thing I don't like about having glasses is misplacing them most of the time. But that's my own fault, eh.most of the time contacts. Once in a while ill wear glasses.
I prefer contacts, however one of my eyes seems to not like them and acts up so instead of wearing them for the two weeks like they say I can, I can only wear them for like 10 hours in that eye. Sigh...I need to go to the eye doctor :p
I prefer to wear contacts so I can maintain my peripheral vision. The only thing I dislike about them is taking them in and out and they dry out if you wear them too long.
I wear my glasses on my lazy days.Contacts, though glasses would be nice to draw less attention.
Everyday, definitely glasses. Special occasions, definitely contacts.
I prefer wearing my glasses because they're more comfortable than contacts but my glasses usually get in the way so I stick to contacts unless I'm at home.
i loooove wearing contacts but they dry out my eyes so I can't wear them tons, so normally I wear glasses except for every now and then I'll wear contacts <3
I don't trust contact lenses. It'd be just my luck that I try putting them in and poke my eye out, lol.
Glasses are simple and sexy... They can be irritating to have on at times, though.glasses, only when I have to, like during class, other than I enjoy being blind, lol I don't want to see every imperfection on a person's face..I like my blurry little world:)
Contacts if I'm out and about, driving or in class. Glasses when I'm home, especially if my eyes are irritated or tired.
I hate glasses! so unnatractive...:people always say I look better w/o them. I always have ti switch them with my sun shades when I go out(dont have transition lenses) or take them off when I go to weddings or parties(cause theyre ugly...)
