Not necessarily an answer, more information than anything else. There are more people that drop out of lenses each year than are fit in lenses for one reason or another.

Also some people, like me truly enjoy wearing glasses. Believe it or not our office gets patients that want glasses with no prescription in them. They need them because, "People take me more serious as a speaker when I wear glasses", or "In court I look smarter when I wear my glasses", there are many professions where glasses can give the person a strategic advantage. It's like wearing a buisness wuit to a meeting, you'll be taken more serious than someone who shows up in board shorts and a T-shirt.
