> my uncorrected vision, which is how I experience life the majority of time

Is this common? I have myopia and I wear my contacts 100% of my waking hours. I can’t tolerate being without them, and can’t really tolerate glasses either.

My prescription is low enough that I don't need my glasses for close-up things like my own computer monitor (it actually gives me a little bit of eyestrain). And since I can walk around inside just fine without them, I usually don't bother putting them on when I'm at home unless I'm watching TV, and don't bother wearing them in the office if I'm not in a (face to face) meeting where I need to see someone else's screen.
