I've always hated glasses because I have a pretty narrow face & all glasses seem to look big on me. I have 4 different kinds. Rimless, full framed etc. I used to only wear it in class at school. But at the end, I chose contact lens. I wear contacts right now & only wear my my glasses at home. I love contact lens! They're not that bad.

I Don't wear contacts as my eye sight is really good, the glasses were only prescribed for my hours of use on the computer other then that I don't wear anything else...

Oh wait I lied, I have prescription for contacts but for "Cosmetic" reasons meaning I do alot of staring in videos and such for my friends video production stuff...

I wear thick black glasses and I have ceramic brackets on top, metal on the bottom. Originally I planned to switch to contact while I have the braces on, then I realised how silly that was, especially once I was banded and realised how nice the brackets looked

The most imporatant thing is to choose some frames that you really like because you will enjoy wearing your glasses more. Don't be embarrassed about wearing glasses and braces - these are not unusual things to have to wear.

Good luck.

I Do have my braces off that's just an old photo while I had braces... My teeth have relapsed and I think I need braces again but oh well I don't care at the moment :p

I wear glasses with my metal braces - I've always loved my glasses. I have thick black rectangular glasses and I do think I have primarily chosen glasses to divert attention away from my crooked teeth - something to hide behind. But I also love them because I'm a blond, and really, I find that I do get taken more seriously when I'm in glasses. I have contacts but rarely wear them. I've been wearing my contacts more lately because I'm in a soccer league, but I find myself always going back to the glasses. I think I look good in them and others have complimented my glasses too.
