Question: Is it bad if you dont wear prescription glasses but you try on a pair!?
I don't wear glasses and don't need them, but i took my friends glasses and put them on to see how they look, my friend was like your eyes are going to get messed up!. I'm not worried, i just want to know if it does really mess up your eyes!. i only wore them for a little bit and if somebody did wear them for a long time would there eyes get messed up!. oh and btw i looked good in those glasses!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Nah!. It won't mess up your eyes!. You may develop eye strain if the prescription is too far off!.

You could get some frames with clear glass for that scholar look!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wearing prescription glasses for a few moments really is not going to cause your eyes damage, in fact you may want to try an experiment!.

When we are young the natural lens within the eye is able to change shape and thereby change focus!. In fact, this is exactly what happens every time a normally sighted person looks at an object that is closer than about 20 feet!. This is called accommodation!.

If you put on a pair of somebody else's glasses and look at a distant object it will be blurred, but in a few seconds your eyes will try to "focus around" the additional refractive error!. If the glasses are not too strong, you will be able to see through the glasses with the same clarity as without them!. When you take the glasses off, your eyes will momentarily be out of focus, but will quickly return back to normal!.

That moment you take the glasses away and before your eyes change to normal is about what your friend sees without the glasses!.

Of course you don't want to do this too long or too often because too much accommodation all the time can lead to headaches and accommodation spasms (focus fluttering)!.

Here's one more to try sometime!. If you cannot "focus around" the glasses, cross your eyes!. Everything will come into perfect focus!.

Don't do that one too much either!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your eyes might cross and stay that way!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
