Addressing Those TikTok Rumors - RELAX

[@reneenbill]

Erik, I am always amazed when I look at trees after getting glasses. The leaves always blended together without glasses, but when I got them I could actually see individual leaves, it was so fascinating LOL.

Colleen!! Can I please just say that as an optician of 18 years, it is SO wonderful to hear you encourage Erik to care for his eyes!! Get the sunnies, get yourself a backup pair, start small. It’s an investment, an important one, and I cannot tell you how disheartening it is when I witness people make their partners feel shitty or shame them for the cost of their vision needs. It’s my Ick, for sure. People, please encourage your people to care for themselves in this way! Love to see, thank you!!

[@Oilofmercy]

Kristin are there variability in polarised sp? Lenses or all the same quality? Need a pair as live in CA but it seems some just have coating, it's very confusing, can't afford name brands like ray ban, that would be easy. Thanks so much for you affirming comment , hope you see this. tia

I still use transition lenses on my glasses, even now at age 60 with progressive (graduated bifocal) lenses. Love them. And they are a lot better now than they were when I was younger. Still have a pair of prescription sunglasses to use for driving, since the car windows keep the transitions from darkening.

requiring glasses in a wintery climate adds a whole other level of irritating...outside on a winter day, into a warm car...instant fog

[@spamjela]

Eric should try pair eyewear or something like that where he can get tons of interchangeable fronts to the frames to changes with his outfits, they have sunglass tops as well!!!

[@Cleoforshort1]

girl i personally think the reason the tiktok search bar says that, is bc the 'solo' podcast that Erik did a while back when you were going on tour and facetimed him from the airport is titled 'we are separated' but it was just implying that you weren't doing the podcast from the same location and tiktok just took that and ran with it to suggest yall ended things lol😂

Hey Erik! I have had glasses since I was three, (I’m 21 now) and I agree with everything you said.

to erik: i’ve been wearing glasses since i was 12, the headache only last the first week, i’ve never been mad at no one for wearing glasses even though they didn’t need them, they are a really cute accessory (and many times when i feel like hiding//shy in social settings i feel grateful i have them) the idea of there’s not coming back it’s super normal, but at some point you realize that no one is seeing the same way as you and that’s kinda fun, after wearing them for a while you forget you even have them, and you’ll go through phases with the glasses they’ll be times you hate them, they’ll be time you love them, right now i’m on a phase of going out and not wearing them, i take them with me but i don’t use them unless i need to. i understand the initial frustration about it but at some point you’ll forget you have them, relax ♡

ERIK! Although I don't wear glasses, I used to work at an optometrist. Advice we used to give was to put the new glasses on first thing in the morning so it gets used to the change easier, might help with reducing headaches and dizziness 😊

[@emily-yn6ny]

i really relate to how erik feels! i got glasses in high school because i sat in the front of the class yet all the writing on the whiteboard was slightly blurry. all lights, especially at night, were blurry too. like they had spikes coming out of every side if that makes sense. i got a bad headache when i started wearing glasses, especially because my eyes would focus on the frames instead of whats in front of me. it goes away after a while. i dont wear glasses everyday now, i just wear them when driving at night. i hope you find your balance soon:) you really dont even notice them after a while. for sunglasses you can always get transitional lenses! they turn into sunglasses in the sun, my boyfriend loves them. also lens crafters is really fast with making glasses

You can get transition lenses that turn darker when you go outside, or you can get prescription sunglasses or you can get contacts or Lasik. There is no need to wear glasses if you don't want to. I didn't think I could wear contacts either in the beginning. I have been wearing them for over 40 years at this point.

One day she said you should really get your eyes checked and I couldn’t BELIEVE how bad my eyes were! It was so enlightening and now I really need my glasses to see four years later. I totally embrace it now and really invest in frames and features I like

Erik I can completely relate to the whole glasses thing! I also have just been told I have astigmatism in both my eyes, I’m 25 and never thought I had a problem with my sight until I was at work getting really bad headaches and have had to spend a ridiculous amount of money on my glasses! They are such an adjustment and once you take them off you do feel really kind of disappointed that now you have to wear them to be able to have that “I can see in HD feeling!”

[@andreapalomera]

Erik I've been using glasses since I was about 18 and when I was a teenager I used to wear fake glasses and I don't mind if someone wears them to accessorize too because they can add to your outfit. I definitely agree that they can be annoying to wear sometimes but in regards to them being expensive I've always gotten my glasses from Firmoo and Zenni which allows me to buy as many pairs as I want for a fraction of the price. I have glasses in different colors and designs now ☺️

I would have guessed they called her agent because she mentioned not having a place to change into Miranda, so she had to awkwardly hide and just put Miranda clothes on top of her dress (and maybe whoever saw that didn't know that she wears a dress under Miranda clothes on tour), not because someone didn't know her name.

It's so interesting to see the difference in their childhoods, not only because Colleen had such a unique experience, but because I always forget Erik is from the East Coast & it's fun to hear the things we grew up on.

[@cathym92606]

To Erik regarding the glasses: I couldn’t agree more with your glasses saga. I first learned I needed the ~HD~ effect when I couldn’t really see projections well in a classroom setting. When I went to get my eyes checked they said my prescription isn’t super strong but I have an astigmatism and they don’t blame me for wanting them and how it would be worth it. It was also the first time I learned that people don’t struggle at night to look at lights. I now don’t feel comfortable driving at night without them. World of difference. Think of it as a blessing! Get stylish, go crazy. Try many styles or regular frames and then ones for sunglasses. Go crazy.

[@ellabella3469]

The robotic farts makes it sound like censored cursing 🤣 Also, I've worn glasses since around age 10 my eyes gradually got worse every year and then at age 23 I was diagnosed with glaucoma, which is super rare for that age. I'm blind as a bat without my glasses and have to use eye drops for the rest of my life. I literally thought my life was over, but 5 years later l'm still going, my drops still work and my eyes have been doing great at every checkup. No worsening for the last few years either It sucks to have to rely on glasses to see but some people have it worse than us, so I'm very thankful that at least my vision can still be corrected 😃 Your glasses look great Erik, don't be scared or ashamed of anything, you need them to see now and that's ok!

Eric! You are not wrong!! I had to get glasses about 3 years ago and my eyes are BAD! But I didn’t know how bad they were until I got glasses! I can’t go without them at all. I assumed everyone saw lights the way I did and when I’d get jokes about squinting I never really thought about it until my eye dr was like if you don’t get glasses you’ll have your drivers license suspended. This was all discovered cause I got glass in my eye and needed an emergency appointment. I hate wearing them but I also love seeing clearer. It’s so hard to out into words but don’t feel bad about how your talking about it… it’s an adjustment!

[@brookslaura]

As a glasses wearer since age 2, I am not at all insulted by glasses as fashion accessories! I'm fortunate that in Ontario, I have benefits that cover the cost of one new pair of glasses/ prescription sunglasses every two years. Growing up, my parents benefits covered glasses the same way. I wore contacts from grade 6 through to University when I had to stop. The contacts were so thick due to my stigmatism and intense prescription that a blood vessel was growing and would permanently be in my line of vision if I didn't stop wearing them. Fast forwards to post University and I learned I don't qualify for Lasik. The shape my eye with my stigmatism is not conductive to Lasik. Next up, a world class eye surgeon from Toronto was ready to place permanent contacts in my eyes to correct my vision. Those lenses are so hard to get, we're still waiting 3 years later for them from Germany. I'm not sure it'll ever happen. Until then, I try not to get annoyed at rain and snow drops on my glasses daily, smudges from kid hands, and the constant switching of glasses and prescription sunglasses. I'm grateful that I CAN see!

[@ariel3725]

Few things from someone who has been wearing glasses for more than 20 years: - glasses will be something like a maintenance meds, you need to wear them most of the time otherwise your grade will go worse over time. I think it took me at least 5-7 years before my grade went up, and the only reason why it went up was because my frame broke and I have to wait for a while before I could replace it. that small window of me not having my glasses on increased my grade. - contact lenses actually takes more effort to use than glasses. at one point, I got tired of glasses that I switched to lenses. there were days where I forgot to take them off to clean them. you can't sleep with them on or they could go inside your eye socket. - I have a small nose bridge, so there is no frame out there that fits my face well. my glasses always go down my face because of it. as the glasses will be with you forever, just embrace it and find frames that could even be stylish. I have 4 frames now, one for work, one for regular use, one for exercise and one that has tinted lens that I use kind of like shades. also, carrots don't help with your eyesight. that's just a hoax made during the war.

[@angelash7305]

Trust me never thought i would be one to wear contacts,but I never had anything wrong with my eyes nor braces for my teeth, never even broken a bone in body growing up. Then 35 hits and they say my astigmatism in both eyes are so bad I could never wear contacts. Well I found a doctor that let me try different contacts on and I feel like I'm a normal person again. But before I got good contacts I wore eye glasses. I know how you feel going from Never wearing glasses to having to wear them all the time is a big change. Hang in there get some good contacts. Daily's are the Best!

I was made fun of for them in school and as an adult people wearing them when they don’t need them makes me chuckle and happy. Also, HOW ANNOYING ARE THEY! I love hearing from someone experiencing this as an adult. I remember realising trees had leaves when I got mine. I only wore contacts as a teenager because I played sports but it feels like too much as an adult. Also, there are cheap glasses sites online that you can try on for free that are $99.

Hi Erik! I usually listen to your guys podcast to sleep but I couldn’t sleep without addressing your glasses dilemma because I could tell you felt really bad! I’ve had astigmatism basically my entire life and even I would buy fake glasses because I thought they were cool looking & my insurance only covered ugly looking glasses😂 (of course I would just struggle with not seeing but during that time I rather look cute than be able to see haha!) Also I had heard that carrots are good for your eye sight so one day I ate 2 extra large bags of carrots in one setting (hoping it would cure my astigmatism) and ended up overdosing in vitamins (woke up in the middle of the night throwing up carrot & had red dots all over my face that didn’t go away for 2 weeks) In conclusion: it is completely okay to feel how you feel! And you’ve never offended someone just because you wore fake glasses. If anyone is offended by that they probably have nothing else to do! 😂

I loved when you guys would do acting scenes even the fan fiction. It’s fun and I wish I could do that with my partner but I bust out laughing😂
