Where are my Damn Glasses ?
Truth is I only have one pair of prescription reading glasses
I do however have lots of reading glasses
Commonly referred to as " Readers"
It's a good thing too because the prescription pair never leaves home
I buy Readers in bulk
Big Box Store
If you catch the sale it's a good deal
Even full price maybe $8 a throw
I carry them in my cargo pants
Same bottom pocket
No case
Average life span about 3 weeks
They always break in the same spot
You reach for them and come out with pieces
A lense missing often
The frame a mess
I love them though
Lightweight and not too geeky
Cool in a dime store kinda way
Perfect for a rogue like me

You get 2 black frames and 1 blue. I kinda like the blue but all are good. Soft pack carrying cases too if you choose to garage then ....

I haven't reached the 'readers' stage yet. but i'm almost there. i already have glasses all over my house, my car, my desk at work. anywhere i will be for an extended time i have glasses within arm's reach. basically because i don't like to wear them all the time.
though, i don't think i could buy in bulk. i like variety too much.

It’s nice to have variety. I’ve got some one offs too.
I buy as much as I can in bulk. It’s almost a sport !

I'm one prescription away from being legally blind. I don't fear it.
Thanks for sharing.

I get it
Check out my many poems about Ginger that I posted here.
They are in my history
I lost her 3 years, haven't been the same since.
Enjoy every minute

I tried bifocals last re-up. I couldn’t walk a straight line with them on, so I sent them back and re-ordered sans tilt-a-whirl.
Never considered “readers”, but maybe that’ll be the hot ticket when my “near vision” outgrows the length of my arms.

I like your current pair
That brainy look is irresistible
Readers are great for on the go life and if you break them you just get another pair out of the drawer.

As I'm getting closer to 50 I found myself needed transitions. I don't always use them (except when I do drive at night), but it's the thing that I never keep them handy to read. I liked your approach on this one, I may need to get more pairs, in order to be more proactive.

The readers are good for multiple locations.
The Transitions are great
You’re on it Wally
