Ideal08, a good adjustment for glasses is worth it. When I started college, I had badly adjusted glasses and didn't speak up.
Almost 20 years later, I've got a keloid scar on the back of my ear.
I also understand your contact lens fears. When I was 16, my eye doctor put them in and I nearly jumped out of his chair.
Eventually, I got sick of wearing super-thick glasses (uncorrected vision is 20-200). So I started contacts. I used a lot of drops, but my eyes got used to them.
