Depends: Wearing glasses is to see better. Wear them if you wish to do so. It will not hurt or help your eyes either way.

Better results: You certainly will get better results if you wear them consistently. You could take them off for reading, but should definitely be wearing them to drive or operate machinery where better vision is essential
