I have two interrelated problems. I forget to wear or I

Feb 8, 2010 11:03AM PST

lose my glasses, so I wear them on a chain around my neck, day and night, which leads us to the second problem, I broke my glasses. I usually keep a spare pair, but I've run out. Fortunately I can get by on simple magnifiers that you pick up at the drug-store, but just at the moment, I'm wearing an old pair of prescription glasses over top of a pair of 2x magnifiers to get clear vision. In daylight I can get by with the 2x magnifiers, but in electric light which is somewhat less bright, I need the extra magnification and the compensation for my imperfect vision in my one good eye.

I'll try to get some 2.5x or better some 2.75x magnifiers tomorrow.
