    Just a question on top of my head? Because i only saw Amare wear glasses and thats all, others wear Face Masks but contacts when playing Basketball?

    I sometimes see NBA players when they are not playing or in casual times they wear glasses

    Thank you for your information!

    If posted on the internet please give me a link.. thank you

    Landry wears contacts. I remember on more than on occasion he had to readjust it on the sidelines.

    I've seen players lose contacts mid-game all the time.

    Wore contacts a lot when I played, at least before I got Lasik. If I am not mistaken Amare wears them because of the injury he had to his eye and it's more protective like Hakeem had when Cartwright's elbow took him out.

    I bet a bunch of players wear contracts not only when they play but when they are out too.
