I prefer to wear glasses over contact lenses.
Glasses are typically worn to correct vision, an example would be reading glasses or glasse for nearsightedness. Though for some people contact lenses look better and are less annoying.
That is true. I like glasses better as they are cheaper and I think easier to clean for me and put on.
Yes glasses are much more convenient for some people understandable. Some types of glasses are used to protect against visible or nearly visible light or radiation?
Yes like sunglasses! They protect against UV radiation I think. And also look cool. Strange I have to wear contacts to wear sunglasses tho. 
I apologize for the awkward question mark at the end of the last sentence. And yes some sunglasses are for style and some protect against UV (ultraviolet) electromagnetic radiation. UV radiation constitutes roughly 10% of total light outputted by the sun. So it is very present in the sunlight that hits the earth.
Wow. You are pretty knowledable about that. I typically do not wear sunglasses when I go outside though, since I just have regular glasses.
Sunglasses
Sunglasses or sun glasses (informally called shades) are a form of protective eyewear designed primarily to prevent bright sunlight and high-energy visible light from damaging or discomforting the eyes. They can sometimes also function as a visual aid, as variously termed spectacles or glasses exist, featuring lenses that are colored, polarized or darkened. In the early 20th century, they were also known as sun cheaters (cheaters then being an American slang term for glasses).
The American Optometric Association recommends wearing sunglasses that block ultraviolet
shades and mirrorshades. Many blind people wear nearly opaque glasses to hide their eyes for cosmetic reasons.
Sunglasses may also have corrective lenses, which requires a prescription. Clip-on sunglasses or sunglass clips can be attached to another pair of glasses. Some wrap-around sunglasses are large enough to be worn over top of another pair of glasses. Otherwise, many people opt to wear contact lenses to correct their vision so that standard sunglasses can be used.
