Where's My Reading Glasses.

The ophthalmologist told me that my eyes are hyperopia, meaning I can see objects well in the distance. It is also known as farsightedness but I the objects near especially the words are all a blur to me. 
I was prescribed reading glasses only. I bought three pairs of reading glasses so I will have stock. I usually put one in my bag always so I will have one when I'm out. One at home I'm using and the other one for replacement just in case I lost one.
I am mylotting when I need to attend to the laundry. When I came back, I am looking for my glasses and cannot find where I place it. So I got the one from my bag. Since I'm not reading yet, I put the eyeglasses on top of my head only to find out that the other one is already in my head.

I don't use glasses anymore they don't really do anything for my vision. I thought about seeing if I could get them again so I could get a licience, but I've only got one working eye. I'd fail the DMV's vision test because I can't see out of my right eye at all.

You belong to the category 'Absent minded professor' (lol) There is a joke about a mother carrying a baby and then looking for it.

@rakski There is a saying about the baby in Hindi where the mother has her baby in her arms but she is looking all over for the baby.

Haven't worn glasses for a while, but I'm thinking that I will need them again one day soon.

It is a good thing you got a spare spectacles. I do the same. One would be inexpensive and is mainly for home use and other for the outside world. It helps to have a better lifespan for both spectacles and plus easier on eyes as well. I used to get 3 years for each of these. This is because at times, some power of eyes could change over a period fo time.You could also think of Lasik and get rid of spectacles and well for now spectacles is the way forward. Hope you enjoyed mylotting while doing laundry. I usually mylot when I am relaxing.

No, but it happens with my phone. I spend whole minutes frantically searching for it to realize it's been in my hand all that time. That's a lot.

That sounds like something I would do.

reading glasses makes me dizzy, but the doctor already advised to get a progressive one.
I have no funny moments with eyeglasses, but frustration looking for my glasses wipes that I always missed placed that I need to look everyday...

I don't need eye glasses;but I use sunglasses while going out in summer.Once I had put on sunglasses and when I came back I forgot they are on my eyes.I was searching them in my bag until my mother laughed and reminded them I had put them on.

I have worn eyeglasses since grade school, At one time I wore contact lenses, At this point when I lay down to read I need to take off my glasses to read the fine print so my eyes focus in very well,
