What did you have to do to get that invite?
My Google Glass edition has arrived! (Pictures)
- Thread starter ChrisM
- Start date
I was selected as one of the first 3,000 to get Glass back in April. I have had them since June. As a Glass owner, I can sometimes invite others to purchase Glass (as I did with Chris Miller )

Good news! My contacts will be in next week.
While I was at the Optometrists office I think everyone there tried out my google glass and took pictures.
I am getting new prescription eye glasses along with my google glass so I decided to try my google glass over the one's I chose to see how it works:
I can't wait till next week.

Heh, that's definitely a nice purchase indeed, but I'm personally waiting for the Oculus Rift myself.
If you're going to get contacts - get disposable ones. Well, they're all disposable, but opt for the 24 hour or weekly ones. The shorter the life span of the contact lens, the better they are for your eyes because they are less durable by letting more oxygen through.
Are Google planning to make the glass used in these prescription based for those that need it?
Coming from world renowned eye surgeons my relatives work with - never go LASIK. You are way better off wearing glasses.

Stalking and voyeurism.
Yes. Glass can translate text in real time by simply saying "Ok Glass, Translate This" and looking at the text. This is great for travelers. Glass is also the best GPS I have ever used.
Looks like the guys at Google Glass think the same as me and I don't need glasses:

Hopefully they'll make an updated version of the prescription frames where the Google Glass part is removable from the frames. Without that feature you'll need to have another pair of glasses just for things like driving and when in a movie theater where you could get in trouble for wearing Google Glass.
I got my contacts Last week finally (They were on backorder) and I failed horribly at putting them in so they wouldn't let me take them home. So I was able to come back Tuesday and try again and I got them in right away, so far I love them expect the putting them in part.
Ironically I think i've been using my google glass less since I got contacts then before. :huh:

They now have the official frames for order.
Yeah but unfortunately they look horrible.
I have been wearing contacts on and off for the last 4 years. You won't even have to thing about what you are doing soon

It took a couple weeks but I am a pro at putting contacts in now.
