      If, like Dr Bates, you think that visual problems are caused by strain and wrong use of the eyes, you will see that wearing glasses, like taking a pain killing drug, alleviates the symptom without doing anything about the cause, and you will want to learn to use them better.

If, like most optometrists, you think that people see badly because their eyes are just made that way, and that there is nothing wrong with the way they are used, then wearing glasses is just fine.
