I wear glasses with my helmet and as long as you can get the arms to seat over your ears properly you shouldn't have any trouble. Mirroring the comments about thin arms - it's definitely the best option but if the material is quite thin expect them to bend
This is both a good and bad thing as it allows them to be flexible but can also deteriorate them over time. My sun glasses (non-prescription) have very thin arms and are so easy to get on in my helmet but they are on their last legs
Contacts are a very good option if you haven't worn glasses before as it takes a bit getting used to looking through the glass rather than at it haha - I would say that wearing contacts all day can make your eyes dry even when not on a bike in the wind so if its a very long day I would probably suggest glasses. Contacts are good for about 8 hours for me at which point they ideally need to be removed - any longer and the dryness causes me to blink something crazy and eventually my eyes begin to water (the irony) and can force the contacts out (severe circumstance)
End of essay.
