Prescription safety glasses in basic training?

Can you wear prescription safety glasses in Army basic training? I see in videos that some guys are wearing safety glasses that look like they have prescription lenses in them.

If so;
Are they given out when you receive your BCG's?
Can you wear them instead of the BCG's?
Are the new glasses that replace the old BCGs now being issued at basic?

I'm not concerned about the way BCGs look, I just think the safety glasses are alot more practical during basic. They'd be better at protecting your eyes and keeping dirt/dust out, as well as stay in place better than the heavy plastic frames.

Are contact lenses dangerous when entering a chemistry lab?

I'm a college student and registered chemistry this coming semester.
I have issues with my eyes because I could see things very good up close, but not far away.
So I had to get eye wear protection.
And I was considering of either getting glasses or contact lens.

I prefer getting lens, but I do not want to risk of getting my eyes damage when entering lab (If the rumors are true) and it looks like it hurts to put them on.

Glasses, on the other hand, looks very simple to put on, but do not look really like having it covering my face and beautiful eyes. :P

But I can deal with the glasses part because I really need to improve my eyesight.

any suggestions? thank you!

Afraid to put contact lenses on?

Yesterday I went for my annual eye exam and contacts were recommended to me. I had been thinking about them for a while so he gave me a pair that'll last 2 weeks and put them on for me. I absolutely LOVED being able to see, but I couldn't get them off so he had to take them off too ^^;
I know HOW to put them on and take them off, I'm just really really scared to. I get right to where I'm about to put it on my eye and then I get scared and don't go through with it
Are there any ways I can get over this fear? I LOVE LOVE LOVED being able to actually see and I don't want to be stuck with glasses, because it's really not the same :(

How to tell if your contact lens is inside out when its in your eye?

Yeah well sometimes I have a hard time just by looking at it I know it has the bowl shape if its good and it's curved out its inside out. Yeah well I just got them like 2 days ago and I just spend an hour and a half putting it in and I don't want to take it out and find that it was the right way the entire time because I'd just be pissed.So any way to tell if its inside out? It's just making my eye water like crazy and it's a little irritated but I'm not sure if that's because I just spend like an hour and a half touching my eye,

How would you write a critical lens essay on this:?

I just want some ideas of how you would write a critical lens essay on The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls.

The quote you have to use for this is:

Why is my eye not responding to Rx lenses?

Both eyes: Given same Rx for ease of contacts. Right eye is slightly better.

Right eye: Sees slightly better (both near and far) than left eye WITHOUT corrective lenses. WITH corrective lenses, sees fuzzier (both near and far) than left eye.

Something about the lens is rendering my eye to not see as sharp as my weaker left eye when "corrected".

Could this be an astigmatism?

It's not a huge difference and my right eye is not becoming more myopic because it's stronger W/O correction. This is weird to me since my right eye is the stronger one. I never noticed this until recently.

Prescribed contact lenses?

I want to get colored contact lenses for cosmetic purposes. I've been told its safer to get prescribed contact lenses rather than getting non prescribed off the internet. I don't have any vision problems or anything like that. Does that mean I cannot get prescribe contacts?

Should i get daily contact lens or just the occasional l ones?

Im turning 16 next year february. I want to get daily, but the thing is i go to a single sex high school and theres no one to.impress? Everyone says i look a lot better without glasses and my face feels free without them too. But my dad thinks wearing them daily causes damage to eyes. Also he thinks that studying in school with them is bad and i might as well wear glasses.
Should i get lenses only for going out or for daily wear? Im stumped. I'd love daily but apparently its bad for eyes…
