The annoying part is I distinctly remember having my glasses when we left the bar. I had them dangling from my shirt collar, and moved them to my pocket b/c I didn't want to crush them giving my friend a hug goodbye Didn't notice they were MIA until this AM heading to airport @hearsay.bsky.social

The pair I just lost retails for $185 so that rationale did not help me as much as I wish it did 😩😩😩 bsky.app/profile/jaso...

Yeah, I've been there. What I try to do is buy REI shades with (what they used to call) dividend money. I get nice sunglasses and it lessens the sting a bit. A bit.

Arrrrgh! I’m so sorry. Could fill a swimming pool with my lost ones :( (If it helps for future, as a full-time glasses wearer I do actually like Zenni for cheap ones.)

This is why I had to switch to transition lenses on my prescription glasses when I was living in Miami. Can't go without them there, but I'll be damned if I can successfully keep track of two pairs of expensive glasses everywhere I go.

Do you find that your transition lenses do not darken when you are in a car? Something about the windshield filtering out the triggering rays. I have a pair of prescription sunglasses for the car that never leave it. I wear my transitions everywhere else.

Haven't ever had a problem that I've noticed.

Thanks. I wonder if it is my lenses or my windshield. On sunny days, if I don’t put on the sunglasses immediately, after a few minutes I realize I am squinting, which reminds me to switch.
