My New Glasses!

Since starting university it's safe to say that I've noticed a dramatic change in my eyesight. I squint a lot during lectures and it's very rare that I can read what's on the presentations. So I decided it was time to get my eyes tested. And I was right. I'm pretty much blind in my left eye and my right eye is doing all the work - I blame computers and phones entirely as I used to have perfect eyesight! So I ended up getting some glasses which to be honest, I was very excited about as I love glasses.
Boots currently have an offer on whereby you can receive 2 pairs of glasses for just £79 and included in the price are the lenses (unless you choose to have special lenses). I picked up the pair above and the pair below and I really love them. I decided to go for a thick frame and a thin frame so that I can mix and match when necessary. 
I am struggle to get used to them though. Although it feels like I can see in HD it's very strange having something on my face whenever I'm watching TV, driving, reading or on the computer. But I'm sure that within time, I won't even notice that they're there.
So this is the first pair of glasses and these are the thick rimmed ones. You can tell from the picture above that it's taking a while for me to get used to them as they're half way down my face - haha!
And this is the second pair. I think I'm warming more towards the thin rimmed glasses as they're really delicate and a bit more 'me.' They're a rose gold colour and are just beautiful!
Which pair do you prefer? Do you have to wear glasses?
