actually, i just got my eyes checked today too, and i was thinking about what kind of lenses to get for my new glasses. i'm glad this thread was made, cuz i think i may get glass lenses instead.... hmmmmm....

My prescription? -14.5 in both eyes with 25% astigmatism.

I wear gas permeable contact lenses because they don't make soft lenses in my prescription. On the positive side, my eyes have not gotten any worse since I've been wearing these lenses. I would really like glasses for those times when my eyes are really tired, but the lenses would be SO thick. But, since some of my family members are going to Korea in December, I may ask them to get my lenses there. They can make lenses VERY thin, but they aren't approved for use in the US since they shatter very easily.
