During the pandemic while trying to adhere to mask regulations for various stores, the strap on my mask caught my glasses in a way where the mask broke the earpiece off of one side of the glasses.

No problem. Some tape, some glue, and it held for quite a long time. Well, eventually that tape and glue adhesive melted and I haven't been able to get the earpiece to stay on. Ok, whatever, the glasses stay on my face. No problem, just be careful.

Took my glasses off casually last night and the other ear piece snapped off... They will still sit on my face, but if I tilt my head forward they easily fall off. Gotta get new glasses. *sigh* I wish I'd gone in on a back up pair, but this has never happened to me before.

Sticking to metal frames from now on. Not unbreakable, but at least I shouldn't be losing the dang ear pieces.

I've had the same issue with plastic ones. Although I am trialling contact lenses soon, which I hope will be an improvement. Getting them out is apparently easy... still not too sold on how easy they are to put in, though.

The worst glasses I've ever had were rimless ones.

It‘s weird in the beginning, but you get used to it pretty fast. When I got mine I had a hard time „touching“ my eye (You don‘t really touch them directly, but you feel it nontheless) . I remember it taking about 15-20 mins to get them out the first time. It‘s not even a second to get them in and out now
