To my fellow four-eyes

[Firoth]

Do you wear glasses in your dreams?

I'm 22 and I've worn glasses for almost 2/3 of my life now, but, when I'm in my dream world, I don't wear glasses. I never worry about them falling off, I don't have blurred vision from just never having them in the dream, I don't have dreams about losing them, nothing. Yet, I have a couple large scars on my body and I find them, quite often, being referenced in my dreams, though I've only had them for a few years at the most.

This topic can also apply to those with contacts. Ever worry about them falling out? Not being in? Drying out? Slipping behind your eye?

 

[Eumersian]

I don't notice. I've been wearing glasses regularly for maybe 6 months, and I can't tell. I used to be able to remember my dreams very well. In fact, I started as an experiment in psychology to take down every detail I remembered about my dreams the morning I woke up. I haven't really remembered my dreams since I started at college, and so I really have no idea.

Slipping behind your eye?

That can happen?
Ow.
I dont have glasses or contacts, just wondering how you get them back out!

 

[Wutaiflea]

I can't say as I've ever really noticed whether or not "dream me" wears glasses.

I don't need to wear mine all the time, but I do sometimes find it surprising if I catch my reflection when I'm not wearing them and its a situation where I normally would (for example, being a passenger in a car). To be honest though, I tend to forget I'm wearing them half the time anyway- its just another part of how I look.

 

[Irridium]

Actually no.

Its strange, although I guess not entirely surprising. I hate these things. More trouble then they're worth. I'd get contacts, but thats a whole other set of issues. Plus I could never bring myself to insert something into my eye. Just gives me shivers.

Anyway, as I said. I don't usually have glasses in my dreams. If I do, they have some other purpose. Like night-vision/milkshake dispenser/infrared/ect.

 

[Anarchemitis]

Way to remind me that mine are broken.

It's never occurred to me to ask myself that. I somehow suppose not, as within the realm of the imagination, scope of perception or focal length is usually indeterminate in the same way the laws of reality aren't as well.

 

[Starnerf]

I've never noticed myself wearing glasses in dreams. But then my dreams are usually pretty hazy to begin with, so I guess I might not have them on for some reason.

 

[Casual Shinji]

I rarely ever wear any clothes in my dreams let alone my glasses.

I do sometimes wear a T-shirt though, and only that.

It's happened to a few people I know. Sometimes if you just move your eye around enough you can get it to come back around. But, if that doesn't work you gotta get a Q-tip or something and fish around behind the edge of your eye, or even go to a doctor to have them do it.

 

[Et3rnalLegend64]

I don't remember my dreams well enough to tell, but I don't think attention was ever brought to them before.

 

[Xathos]

Huh. Its strange, I actually don't know. I mean, I guess I do, but when I dream I never take the time to check.

Though, my vision seems fine when I dream. Maybe I wear them in my dreams as well? Never really thought about it before.

DELETED

 

[Tharwen]

I... I've never bothered to check. I suppose I never wear them, because some of the things I pull off in dreams could never work with glasses on.

That happened to me once. It wasn't painful (contacts rarely are), but it took about an hour of glaring at a mirror and poking myself in the eye to get it back out.

 

[ReservoirAngel]

Regularly in my dreams I look completely different than I do in real life. Sometimes that involves glasses, sometimes it doesn't.

 

[One of Many]

Well I'm a deep sleeper and don't really remember my dreams, so I'll go with maybe.

 

[Kuriko]

I've always wore glasses in my dreams. D:

I feel the same way...Girls in glasses are the best! Erhm...

OT: I haven't noticed. Not that i would though.I am so used to having my glasses that they are baseicly a part of me. I kinda feel naked with out them, that is why i dont have contacts. Plus my vision sucks without them.

 

[ComicsAreWeird]

I always see myself without glasses in my dreams. The fact that i rarely use them also helps (i use contact lenses) to create that mental image.

 

[gamefreakbsp]

I have never noticed. Probably.
