One of my friends told me this ages ago. TBH, most people I know with their ears pierced do need glasses, IIRC she said it was something to do with a meridian. Probably something her mother told her to discourage her from piercing her ears!
Is anyone interested in a 'poll' to find out more?

Answer YES if you have pierced ears and wear glasses/contacts/(have had lazer surgery!)

Answer NO if you have pierced ears but don't need any of the above.

Yes. I got glasses at 11, about 18 months after I had my ears pierced.

And I have had my ears pierced loads and my eye sight keeps getting worse

Hmmm.

YES

This is a bonkers theory though...

Yes.

And it can cause lice.

There's no way piercing ears can affect your vision. Lol!!

Having your ears done can't lead to poor vision but there is a well recognised link between piercings and stealing grapes yu know

What a wonderfully mad theory!

I have worn glasses for short-sightedness since I was 7 but didn't have my ears pierced until I was 16.

Is there any correlation between number of ear piercings and deterioration of vision? I have three holes in my right ear but only two in my left - yet my left eye has poorer vision that my right. Spooky

If you have your eyebrow pierced do you start to go deaf?

martha - you short-sighted? now there's a co-incidence

Aaaaarggggh...I am being stalked by a madwoman who thinks I am her doppelganger!
