> wearing glasses (or contacts) gets really annoying

Add sports in general and VR goggles to that list

Indeed. I blame having to wear glasses since primary school for my general dislike of sports. And all the VR gear I ever tested is not compatible with glasses (also weird to use without). Even watching 3D movies in cinemas is... tricky.

I climb in glasses fine, and my PSVR seems completely compatible with my frames. YMMV?

Really, add anything that involves eye protection. E.g. shooting sports or hunting. Protective prescription eyewear for those is rather uncomfortable - due to the shape of the glasses themselves, the lenses are usually inserts, and have to be put in an awkward location where they're very close to the eyes.

Oh yes! I can't believe I neglected that. I often work on VR project at work. Prior to that I often worked in stereoscopic film which had the same problem.
