News.com.au are reporting that a poll conducted by Specsavers showed that 13% of Australian men avoid the optometrist because they're afraid they'll be told they need glasses.
Seriously, what's the big deal for having to wear glasses?
I've been wearing them since I was 11. It's all about finding the right pair of specs to suit your face. Also with geek chic in fashion and all the celebrities wearing them proudly, there is no longer that nerdy stigma associated with wearing eyeglasses.
Bulk billing/Medicare for eye checks are provided by most optometrists in Australia so the test won't have to cost you a thing.
