Spectacles also act as the protective gear for our eyes against the blood or any other form of body fluid from patients, especially for surgeons or those who do procedures. It is not a pleasant experience to have blood or body fluid, secretions or discharge to accidentally splash or spurt onto the face, moreover into the eyes !! Wearing that pair of eye goggles is not practical and just too troublesome, unless the patient is known to be Hepatitis or HIV positive.Remembering the days when my face was splashed with the gush of amniotic fluid aka liqor when the amniotic membrane was nicked during Caesarean Section for a patient with polyhydramnios (excessive liquor) and macrosomia (big baby) - free facial :( Luckily I had my spectacles on. And not forgetting the spurting of blood occasionally when the blood vessel or artery was nicked, and the worst one is vomitus (*&%$#@ yucks !!) I wore contact lens too in the past (during my undergraduate time) but I find it a bit troublesome. Meticulous and needs to be handled with care.
I know most of you here wear contact lens but I will still say YES to glasses.Pssss... last but not least, don't you think those who wear glasses looks more intelligent? LOL

Winn BOLEH !!
Somehow one day I know I should opt back to glasses. But then again, I prefer contact lenses when playing sports. Nowadays, I wear glasses more often (makes me look geeky) because my eyes just can't take the prolong wear of contacts.
ReplyDeletei oso wanna do lasik leh... but too poor :(
ReplyDeletecontact lens very mafan. not for me! i lazy wash and rinse the lenses one...
specs can block dark circles from being too obvious to others! this is one of the nice features which i like from wearing specs... and specs oso make u stand out from a gang of non-specs wearers.
These days, I graduated to wearing magnifying glass liao. LOL
ReplyDeletelynnx,
ReplyDeleteContact lens is good when playing games or sports, and when eating too !! No annoying vapours @ the glass :P
kyh,
Have to bear in mind that there are possible complications when doing lasik too ;)
Hahah, u always have those "panda eyes" cos lack of sleep? ;)
cocka,
Magnifying glass?
The wise one has spoken !!
Congrats for your great achievement!! lol
chen, me, me!! me number one fan of wearing glasses!!! :D
ReplyDeleteI dun think I would do lasik even if I had the money.. and contact lens.. well, after seeing wut happen to my friend (her eyes got infected and takes one year to heal and all that).. think I'll stick to glasses anytime.
and yeah, I think it makes one looks intelligent too.. like you and para doktor sekalian :)
So guys, what are you waiting for? Go get yourself a pair of glasses and look smart!! :D
ps: agrees with kyh specs can block dark circles.. :P
I know what you mean.
ReplyDelete- Another intelligent looking person.
Haha!
*nods head
ReplyDeleteagree... cause i look funny withour my glasses on :P
Aaaahhh... now I know the reason why you back wearing glasses since the last time you were contact lens during you college years :D
ReplyDeleteWell, since about 1/2 year ago, when I got irritation with my contact lens, I've been wearing back my glasses again but not daily, so it's like 2 days glasses, 2 days contact lens because my eyes got so dry these days, not so sure why? Uhmmm is it because getting old? LOL
ME ME!!
ReplyDeleteme also wear specs de!!!
hehehe..i was NERD 'x'!!
oops i don mean ppl who wear specs r nerds ah :P
eee i think ur glasses very dirtyyyyyy pls don let me touch it when u come nxt week
*run*
butt,
ReplyDeleteHi 5 ;)
Now I count-count & see-see look-look back.. Actually got few people here wearing glasses too ;) Not all wear contact lens :P
Yeah, need to take precautions when wearing contact lens. Must practise strict hygiene and no meddling the lens with dirty hands ;)
KW,
TQ TQ for acknowledge that !!
Hahahhaha
JL,
And I didn't add in this point earlier on - My eyes are disproportionate - one slightly bigger & one slightly smaller. People normally won't notice the difference when I wear glasses, cos it's not so obvious then :P !! Kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Selba,
ReplyDeleteThat is one of the reasons. Another one is... I'm lazy. Hahha, wearing contact lens more troublesome mah.. Needs meticulous care & strict hygiene.
If u have dry eyes, then u shouldn't wear contact lens liao :) Very discomfort to the eyes, especially if u r working in the air conditioned place. The eyes will get even dryer..
Pink Cotton,
Wah?
*drop jaw*
Since when pink cotton wear back glasses? I tot all these while u wear contact lens geh? :P
Apa pasal call yourself NERD pulak?
Waiiiiiiiiiiii... Luckily u mentioned "i don mean ppl who wear specs r nerds " else I will sure bok u! LOL
Sikui, say my glasses are dirty :(
If lidat, then my hands are even more dirty loh.. :P Must remember to touch u more when I see u next time !!! Kkkkkkkkkkk
chen, i am not wearng spec, but if i do, i prefer to wear glasses than contats lens. i didnt wear spec, i am not a nerd, hehe.. :p
ReplyDeleteYes agreed.. I wear glasses as well.. so I look more intelligent.. :P
ReplyDeleteLuckily I no need wear spectacles, I eyes still good... kekeke.
ReplyDeletesin ling,
ReplyDeletewah.. regarding your statement "i didnt wear spec, i am not a nerd". Then, u mean those who are wearing spect are nerds????
o.O

ReplyDeletehehehehe...
ReplyDeletegot leh!..i wear glasses when i cannot wake up on time...lol lol

ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll do Lasik when I have the money... but scared will be not used when don't have to wear specs. Hehe.
blueheeler,
ReplyDeletestarted wearing glasses at 7 years old? Earlier than me - I started wearing glasses at 13 years old, during my secondary school time :)
I think that has become a habit ;)
I remembered doing the similar act when I wore contact lens in the past - unconsciously wanna adjust my glasses on & off ;)

ReplyDelete13th panda,
ReplyDeleteanother lucky one with perfect eye sights !!
*jealous-nya*
Those things that I mentioned is my real life experience & encounter leh..Luckily those spurting of blood etc lepisodes only occur once in a blue moon.. But u never know when that gonna happen. Just like kena lottery lidat ... Cannot predict wan :)
Not to mention vomitus.. I kena patient's urine on my hands & my feet before too :(
sengkor,
What tat someone said might be true mah, since u already look intelligent like professor liao, so no need to look "more intelligent" lah ;)
doctors very noble. *respect*
ReplyDeletei vomitted on my doc's feet a little last week. he couldn't 'siam' in time, and i don't know how to vomit (control). so the paiseh.
i peeped at dr. bernard's blog. now hin-hin, don't think want to eat pork or look at chopped liver for a while...
me wearing glasses too. instead of looking "clever", ppl say i look like "nerd". *cry cry* haha...
ReplyDeleteI have planned to do LASIK, but dunno which doctor is more experienced. I heard penang got, dunno whether lokun Chen can recommend any good doctor? :-) would be glad to give u my email for further details, cuz i think lokun cannot do advertisement one rite?
i drink milo kosong for this period. bring you one milo kosong si. (with carnation milk very nice)
ReplyDeletemisti,
ReplyDeletePoor Misti.. and poor tat doctor whose feet kena vomitus ;)
Well, it's hard to control vomit, especially if it just came to sudden.. it's sometime just "out of control" wan.. So don't feel so bad about it lah.. :)
Kkkkkkkkkk... hope u don't get a shock out of your life after seeing the so called "gross" picture over there ;)
YD,

ReplyDeleteI saw u wearing spec in your younger days.. Nowadays, u no more wearing spec liao? ;)
But accountant have to deal with accounts and taxes woh..
XX( too :P
Uahh.. out of soooo many ppl wearing specs you mention me ah?? LOL.
ReplyDeleteI'm wearing plastic specs too.. frameless 'cos it's lighter. I've had countless specs broken (twice while playing futsal) already but I still like them compared to contacts (tried them once while waiting for a pair of glasses to be ready) 'cos contacts make my eyes itch.
Recently I was thinking of trying contacts again while playing but haven't gotten to it yet.
And yes, i prefer my specs to goggles (they fog up) ... and pinch my nose ... and I look wierd and not hensem at all in goggles.
Last but not least, (cheong hei) i agree that I look more "academic" in specs. ;-)
bernard,
ReplyDeleteHehehe, u r the privileged one mah!
Can see u with your spect on @ the profile pict :)
Frameless & plastic lens. Very light, just like not wearing spect. The down side is can get scratched easily loh, hence need to handle with greater care :) That day I wore back my old glass lens glasses for a while.. Wow.. so heavy!!
Very irritating when the goggles fog up during surgery.. Everything become blurrrrrrrr...
More academic, intellectual & more handsome too !!! ;)
