For all you people with perfect 20/20 vision, you’re lucky, because wearing glasses isn’t fun, and for those of us who do… well, the everyday problems accumulating masses of jokes about glasses is just too real.
Day-in-day-out, we experience the battle of having to swap them with sunglasses and not being able to see in sunny weather. When we enter a warm room, our lenses steam up, and we can’t see. Oh, and that also happens when we have a hot drink. Then there’s making out with another person who wears glasses (see, the clash of the arms and the lenses), and you haven’t experienced true horror until you wake up, and can’t find your glasses because they’ve fallen down the side of your bed. You can’t see them, because you have all the visual capacity of a bat. These might seem like funny problems to some, but the struggle is very real.
To highlight the plight of the bespectacled, Bored Panda has found some of the funniest glasses jokes and the most relatable memes that show the struggles of wearing goggles.
Having eye problems does not mean we have problems understanding these funny jokes. And remember that wearing a pair can make you at least 10 percent smarter. We can take comfort in that… right?

The Perks Of Bad Eyesight
The Problem With 3D Movies
Same thing when you have to wear safety glasses! It's great being made to feel doubly nerdy...
Glasses Problems
The Unrealistic Part
Am I the only one who thinks that nobody wears glasses in Hogwarts but Harry? o.O
A Whole New Person
If children in my class see me without glasses, invariably the comment is "Miss S. your eyes!" I am not sure what this means.
Glasses Problems
That's Enough Seeing For One Day
Glasses vs. Contacts
It's also rather difficult to CHEW on your contacts, so that people know you're in deep thought.
How I See vs. How They Think I See
This is so true. I don't know how many times my friends have asked "how many fingers is there?"
Glass Cleaning 101
The best way to clean the glasses is to wash them with soap and then dry and clean them with clean tissue or toilet paper.
They're Always There
lol I've done that, even reached to take them off, and then I look around to make sure no one just saw me reach for glasses that weren't there
The Problem With Selfies
I HATE glass glare. I mean, we people with glasses already have problems, why can't we at least not have selfie problems
Nerds vs. Fashionistas
The horrible black-rimmed plastic glasses that I wore from the age of 7 contributed to my introverted nature because everyone laughed at me wearing them, everyone said they were ugly. And now they're FASHIONABLE? Modern world, I will not forgive you for this!
Forever Squinting
I have prescription sunglasses but it's a pain changing back and forth... And feels rude if I leave the normal ones in the car by mistake!

I wish shampoos and conditioner came in bottles sufficiently different enough that I could tell them apart. Some days I condition and then
*WARNING* NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH ! I'm surprised that no one mentioned the petri dish that is our glasses' nose pads. After a couple of years, we could probably grow a miniature eco-system on there. (Sorry. I DID warn you.)
The worst thing that happened was that the wind blew my glasses into the road just as I was about to cross. Without my glasses on I couldn't look for my glasses! Definitely not a good idea to crawl into the middle of the road, patting the ground to look for them. And when the lights changed again and the traffic continued, they were gone forever. Luckily I was within walking distance of home, but since then I've always kept a spare pair in my car. If you've driven somewhere and you lose them, you will be in BIG trouble!
I know the feeling of forgetting new prescription glasses at home, after you have been told that you MUST wear them for night time driving. All I could see were blurry traffic and street lights and extremely blindingly bright car lights. I have astigmatism, so I'm basically screwed without glasses at night.
