My rude awakening was trying to kick someone in the face while dreaming. Instead, I kicked a heavy duty tote next to my bed with bare feet. Was not happy about that, but mildly better than choking myself awake after farting under the covers.
Those of us whose eyes need optical correction (yes, I am one) either have surgery OR wear contacts or both.
Glasses break if trodden on, or fly off (sometimes) at 70mph on your motorcycle. THEN they break, if you can find them.
Not going back to obsolete technology and neither shoul Tom.
Not everyone can afford surgery (over here in South Carolina, it’s rare to be included even when the insurance covers eye care, and even that’s not always covered – lack of universal health care blows chunks), and those of us who have astigmatisms and require bifocals cannot wear contacts. And some folks just think they look better with glasses than without. Even after my dad had lasik, he still wore bifocals because the surgery didn’t correct his astigmatism.
Here in Aust. we have a Public Health System which subsidies or sets free health care. it’s a political decision (about 25 years ago) and yes, we pay for it with taxes.
You choose the political policies you want to kive under.
When I had a fall and broke both lower legs (tibia & lfibula), I spent four months in plaster, in hospital, ankle surgery (comminuted fracture right malleolus bone, plated & screwed) as a Public Patient – total cost $AUD 0.00.
My cataract surgery gave me the option (an extra $AUD620) for asymmetric replacement lenses to correct my astigmatism.
That said, i also have to wear glasses (magnifying) for close screen work (phone, tablet & desktop) but that’s because I’m 78 years old. Don’t need or want glasses for normal use or watching TV.
…Oh, is he in for a rude awakening.

Ah, a suicide mission into another world… Now THAT is my kind of date.
“Boobs.. now with nipples!”
The big deal that’s about to happen will be very weird, not just for him but for his parents too
I feel like every date would go better with chocolate chip cookies in hand.
Finally, back to the good plot.
Yeah Dont care about bimbo and the nerd squad.
How about having his father wear Clark Kent style glasses.
How about having anyone and everyone who wears glasses wear the same kind glasses that Clark Kent wears.
