Glasses

Frequently. It helps reduce sensory overload and allow me to calm down faster.

They live on my face. Unless I'm sleeping or showering. My vision isn't that bad, just bad enough.

I find public pools really relaxing for this reason. I'm literally blind to all the chaos going on around me.

When I'm really tired of it all, I take them off at 2 in the morning while driving on the highway.

No but I do it with my hearing aids

Curse my perfect vision.

I take them off eventually at family dinners, yeah

I got pretty bad blepharitis once from using expired eyedrops (figured it wouldn't be a problem to use a couple of drops ... figured wrong). Lasted about a week; treatment was antibiotic eyedrops. Anyhow, during that time, it was very uncomfortable to open my eyes, and just a little more comfortable to keep them closed. So I kept them closed for most of a week.

I noticed that without my brain processing so much visual input, things seemed ... 'quieter' somehow (is the only word I can think of for it) inside my head. Less busy. More ... peaceful.

I wear glasses for distance and reading, but, of course, wasn't during my 'off week'. But relevant to OP's question, I think, is the sense of peace that came from less visual stimulation.

I have spent times without my glasses, and found it to be less ... busy. But I get eyestrain and a headache within a few hours, due to, I guess, trying to focus, or interpret, what I was seeing. So, yes, sometimes I take my glasses off to give my brain a break.

All the time... Unless I'm outside. sunglasses with a very old prescription are the sweet spot.

Not being able to do this, and realizing how much I missed it, was the biggest surprise after getting LASIK.

I often paint without glasses, or without the correct glasses. Gets rid of all pesky details.

I can't wear my glasses around people because I get an overload of eye contact. I mostly wear them for driving or cycling.

I have an astigmatism and the eye doctor said I could use glasses. I don't really need them but they do help me see very fine details. Without them everyone looks better similar to the glow/fuzz/filter on a soap opera. With them on I can see every line on a person's face.

Im short sighted but i take that as a feature

Only when I’m driving.
