Question Are glasses worth it?

I've had this problem for awhile now...I have trouble seeing things that are far away. I went to the eye doctor a couple of years ago, and they said I had perfect vision.

Well, I went to a different one just today, and he said that I have 20/25 vision in one eye and 20/30 in the other along with mild astigmatism. He told me that most people with vision like that choose not to have glasses, but that it was my choice. When he had the prescription lenses, I could see a lot better, and more clearly, and he noted that...So I was like yeah, I'll take glasses because I'd like to be able to see more.

My mom doesn't believe me that glasses would help me even though It's really only distance that I have trouble with...the doctor said I was obviously struggling and she said she would only be willing to pay for them if I wear them all the time, but she really thinks that I just want them for some odd reason.

What do you guys think?

I'm going to get the nonetheless, I just wanted to get some opinions.

I don't understand why anyone would want to be lumbered with eyeglasses if they are not needed. I find myself constantly cleaning them!

You get your glasses if you feel you need them, yes!
