Do what you want but I would have never worked D-1 basketball wearing glasses.
Get Lasik or contacts or work a lower level schedule.
Do what you want and live with it.

Thank goodness I get my own games (no assigning association -- we go straight to the conferences and schools) and this would NOT be a factor for me. One of my regular partners wears glasses and he's a top-notch official.
This "perception" is kept alive by OTHER OFFICIALS. I don't think non-officials really care whether or not you're wearing glasses. Most people probably wouldn't even notice.
