| So, basically this is a question for us who are visually impaired. For a while a certain Windows 7 'my idea' commercial has bothered me. It wasn't until just recently that I realized this guy was wearing his glasses in the shower. Is this a normal thing that I was unaware of? It seems kind of unsanitary and like it might be harmful to the glasses. I mean, I usually drag myself out of bed and into the shower before even reaching for them. I don't sleep with them on, so why put them on before cleaning myself up for the day? Hell, thinking about it, most people I know who need to wear glasses don't even wear them 90% of the time so why would they wear them in the shower? Really, I'm just baffled by this and am wondering if anyone else does it, and what reason they could have to do it. |

| I can't see the commercial on my computer, but I can tell you that I don't wear glasses in the shower. Nothing is far enough away to require them and the water obscures your vision anyway. The few times I tried it I found it to be a horrible inconvenience. |

| LOL, I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to be normal. I can't even wear my glasses in the bathroom after a shower, let along during my shower. They end up getting all fogged up the second I put them on. I can see better without them at that rate. When I first got contacts one of my greatest joys was actually being able to see while I showered. There was this one time where I just waltzed under the water and forgot to take them off. It was horrible actually. For the weirdest second I thought my eyes were filling with water or something. xD |

| I don't think I have, because I take my shower directly after I wake up. So I don't even put on my glasses beforehand. Plus, I only wear my glasses for watching movies and seeing the boards in class at school. |
 |
| i dont think anyone does they will get all foggy and you cant see anything |
Yuruku said: It would be retarded, because then you get water on your glasses and have to clean them every time you shower. Nevermind water on the glasses. They become fogged up before the water even hits them lol. No one wears them in the shower. |
| Kind of want to try this.... |
    |
| My vision is shitty, but not that shitty. Plus I'd probably knock them off by accident when washing my face. |
 |
| i wear glasses at all times so sometimes i forget that i have them on and walk into the shower with them. i usually notice i have them on before they get wet though because i notice how clear the water is when its usually a blur. im like, "wtf! oh, i have my glasses on." |
| Thats not weird at all! I wear clothes when I shower. |
| I've tried it before and it didn't work. (It's hard to shave when your legs are a blur). Fogged up immediately and I could see less than I could without the glasses. Wearing contacts while showering is crazy, though. Seeing my shower in focus is weiiiiiird. |
| when i saw that commercial the first thing i did was wonder why he was in the shower with glasses on? when i had glasses, i would forget i had them on and get so annoyed. |

tehnominator said: I used to forget, but not anymore. Sometimes I forget to take them off. But it always sucks when that happens. The reason we take it off is simply because most people, in the first place, wear glasses due to being shortsighted. Unless your eyesight is so bad you can't see anything beyond like a 30cm radius, then wearing glasses in the shower would obscure your vision even more with the constant dripping of water. Which, really, totally just ruins the purpose of wearing glasses in the first place. |
| Bad idea, I always take mine off when I shower because first of all nothing's ever far enough away to need them in my bathroom and secondly because they steam up and you end up being able to see even less than you would without them on in the first place. It's like being in a massive rainstorm in the cold then walking into a warm room. |
| Weird. I would never do that. Why the hell would someone put on his glasses during shower time. >_> |
| I always take them off. The only thing I occasionally keep when taking a shower is my gold chain. Showering with glasses is a horrendous idea; I had to do it once or twice when I needed to take a quick 5 minute shower with all my clothes on, but with a powerful stream of water, it can actually damage the lens. |
| Actually fogging hasn't been that much of a problem for me, it goes away after the temperatures equalize, or when you get water on them. |

| I don't wear my glasses but I almost always shower with contacts in. |
| I prefer glasses off, unless maybe they are some how water proof to avoid streaks. Kinda like those water proof radios! XD |
 |
| It's cause the man is a GENIUS guys, he has to keep his glasses 24/7 or else he'll turn into a gremlin in no time and lose all cognitive capabilities. On a serious not tho, it's a bad idea. Don't try this at home kids. |
 |
| noticed it too. bugged the shit out of me. |
| i take my glasses off but my fiance leaves his on. his reason is that so he can see the shampoo bottles |

I don't wear my contacts often because I'm a big baby and they bother my eyes. It's sad really. Even the lure of a crystal clear bathing experience won't make me wear them. |
