    This “directly” distinction you’re making is not very relevant.

    Usually “direct” would mean that without it, it wouldn’t have happened. Yes, whatever broke the glasses would’ve happened without the glasses as well, but it likely wouldn’t have resulted in a scratched cornea. So yes, the scratched cornea is a direct effect of having worn glasses.

      Eh, fair I guess, but I maintain that glasses are 100% safe when you try them out, LASIK is way more dangerous during the treatment phase even at a 99% safety rating
