What happens when you wear glasses

Good morning peeps!

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Today, I thought i'd write about something which has played a major part in my life. I'd say i've been living with this since high school, however it really didn't play a bit part until uni. 

You see, I need this thing to see, without it, everyone just looks like a blob of blur to me. 

Glasses.

I've been wearing glasses for about 15 years on and off. During these times, I've come to realise that there are few things which I do without realising. 

So glasses wearers, let me know if any of this has happened to you.

1. Panic because you thought you lost your glasses, however you’ve been wearing them the whole time.

Ok, just hear me out. Before I became a full time glasses wearer, I only wore them when I needed it. So this meant a lot of wearing them and taking them off etc etc. During this period there have been a few instances, when I thought I’d actually lost my glasses. I’d be in a full panic and be looking for them everywhere. Like EVERYWHERE! Only to realise they were either on my head or even the most dumbest one… I was actually wearing them. Yup, I was walking down the walk way at uni one day, and suddenly I was like “OMG! Where’s my glasses?” Stop. Look through my bag, actually started walking back to the Red Centre building. Then I decided to touch my face and realised my glasses were there… yup... that was a very proud moment for me...

2. You wear prescription sunnies and forget you’re wearing them once you’re inside the building

I’ve actually done this a few times. I've had plenty of moments where I'd be out shopping with my friends and we casually walk into a store and I'd be that "person" who wears sunnies indoors and that's when the judgement begins. I know what people are thinking. They're thinking, "oh you're one of THOSE people." But i'm not! I just need these to see! They don't understand the struggle.

There was also this one instance where I actually wore my sunnies all the way to work only to realise that I’d left my glasses in my car. Yup, I left my glasses in the car… =.= LUCKILY! I actually had spare contacts with me. Moral of this story – keep spare contacts with you. You never know when you need them!!

3.  The phantom glasses

After wearing glasses 24/7. One feels like some change. So once and a while I’ll wear contacts. When this happens, I can sometimes forget and I imagine that I am actually wearing glasses and go to push them up only to touch the ridge of my nose… yup that’s not weird at all. I’ll just leave it there.

4. People always want to try on your glasses

Pretty self-explanatory. Haha. There have been times when people would ask to try on my glasses. Never understood the fascination.

5. I forget where I put my glasses

This is the worst possible thing to happen. Ever! Why? Well when you need glasses to see, the minute you lose them. You kinda can’t see. Makes it really hard to find them again.


I’m not sure if this happens to everyone, but I thought I’d just write this random little thing. Haha.

Until next time!!

  1. Hahahah yeah I'm one of those wear it not often type - always forget where I left it especially when I need them most. I think people are fascinate with the whole image that if I try it on maybe I'll look smart? You know it's all thanks to those Hollywood movies that sometimes glamour up the whole wear glasses image.

  2. I wear mine for work only. Since I've started working my eye sight had deteriorated. The first and fifth symptom had been noted!
