I have really bad vision and need glasses but i don't like them?

Contacts or surgery: Glasses are just one option. Look into contact lenses and possibly refractive surgery to correct the problem. It is a good idea to have glasses as well to use when necessary.

Glasses options: Luckily there are many options for you today. First there is the contact lens option. You can be in contact lenses by tomorrow. After that there are all the refractive surgery options: lasik, prk and many more now. Last option is to get a new pair of glasses.
