Do these sunglasses suit me?

so I've been looking for some sunglasses and I've been eyeing these for a while (well not this EXACT pair but the lens sizes are the same - just the sides are different, but yeah they all pretty much look the same)

and I finally went into the store today and I tried them on and my mom took a picture but I look awkward and felt rushed because a sales associate literally stood next to us the entire time, yeah I know its her job but I still felt rushed so yeah, you can even see her in the back in the magenta cardigan -.- anyway, do these sunglasses fit my face? too big? just isn't the right type for my face? they are pricey so I'd like to make sure they actually look good before spending the money!

Best brand for colored contacts? - 1

I have dark brown eyes and I just got hazel colored contacts from freshlook coloredb lends. I think they look ok but when I ask people, like my friends some can tell especially the girls. They said stuff like they poke out or they look shiny. I want a brand that makes my eyes look more realistic. And im fair skin so I can pull off hazel eyes if I had realer colored contacts.

My eye may be infected again…help?

I had an eye infection due to my contact lenses on November 16th and my right eye was completely red. It was really bad. Went to the doctor and he gave me Vigamox and Prednisolone…it had worked

Decemeber 10th…the infection came back and then he prescribed me those again…

it has been a little over a month and now and There is a little discharge coming out of it. Very little. Not a lot. My mom said my right eye is a little red, not at all a lot. Do you think this is just a small reaction of me starting to wear contact lenses on my right eye? I stopped wearing them November 16th till January 15th. Do you think its my eye getting used to my contact lenses?

Is it illegal to buy contact lenses online without a current prescription?

From the quick searching I did I think I understand it's illegal for a US based store or site to SELL lenses without confirming the prescription but if I've found somewhere overseas that doesn't do prescription verification am I breaking any US law? I've had the same Rx for 5 years running and I just ran out and my prescription expired last week and I don't have enough extra cash right now to get both the exam and contacts.

How to test the optical characteristics of a contact lens using an interferometer?

For my fourth year project I have been assigned the task of designing a setup where I attempt to find the power of a contact lens using a Twyman-Green Interferometer. I have ani idea of placing the contact lens in some kind of cuvette with a salene solution and then passing the light through it. But will the cuvette and saline solution affect the results or will I have to take them into account?

How bad would my shortsightedness interfere with surgical work?

I have myopia alta diagnosed from a young age (8 yrs old) and have -6 dpt on left and -7 dpt on my right eye. I would like to now if it is a good idea to opt for a surgical career (neuro or cardiac chirurgy) then? I would say I have an excellent dexterity, physical stamina needed, good spatial and visual perception (a keen eye for details), and an ambition, if that counts.
Could my myopia be successfully mitigated using lenses or surgical glasses, or both?
Would I be looked weird upon on being a shortsighted surgeon (well if I become one)? Would it be harder for me getting a job after I finish my residency?
I am a premed student (20 yrs old), so I've never acctually been in the OR.
If it weren't such a good idea, what other specialties, similar to surgery by some means, would you recommend? (I hope this doesn't sound like I disgrace other medical specialties, I'm just trying to find something that suits me.)
Added (1). @ Christin K I do wear glasses or contact lenses depending on occasion. And from my experience with lenses I don't see so well in close as with glasses. But glasses of such a high dyoptria make everything smaller. So I am afraid I my not be able to see that much detail.
As well, I might take a laser eye surgery if it would lessen my myopia and leave me with the ability to see as precise as with naked eye if I approached closer.
