Ask @Dave7 . They are probably with his passport.

In the case (where you kept your prescription sunglasses).

My wife went into a flap on holiday, couldn't find her D+G shades. Looked all over the room, left details with the staff in case they found them and checked at all the bars and restaurants we'd been in. Half way home on a coffee stop she finds them..........in her glasses case

So long as they are not with my expensive prescription Oakleys.......they are at the bottom of the Irish Sea from when I came off the kayak

I only need binos for close work such as reading, VDU or working on the car, so if I misplace a pair I wont starve to death because I can't see.

You can get various types of spectacles tracking devices that work with bluetooth or similar for this kind of Mission Impossible scenario.

If you are anything like me, they are perched on the top of your head.

But how will you operate your smartphone to find them if you don't have your glasses?

They’re probably over on the ‘Friday night is music night’ thread

Lady Byegad has specs for reading, reading in bed, the TV and driving. The driving ones are in the car. As to the others.............. least said, soonest mended. She seems incapable of keeping track of any one of the other three pairs.

So much easier for me. My bedtime reading glasses stay next to the bed, my varifocal, transitions and eye-watering expensive glasses are in the case by my bed, when I'm asleep and on the rest of the time.

True story this.

Last year I set off in the morning, got to the end of my road and thought, "Bugger I've forgot to wear my glasses". Reversed back to the house and as I got there I realised I could see perfectly well.

I was wearing the feckin' things

I once had a pair of rimless varifocals with extremely slender titanium arms/legs. Kept putting them down and losing them cos I couldn't see them!

My mum's friend lost her reading glasses one Christmas only to find that she had left them on top of the turkey when she put it in the oven

 

[Smokin Joe]

Anyone else find that varifocals and cycling don't mix? I have to revert to single vision on both bikes and motorbikes because I don't feel safe with the varifocals on two wheels though they are perfect for driving. I put it down to having to move the eyes up and down a lot more on a bike whereas in a car you are looking either straight ahead or side to side.

Or maybe it's just me?
