I went through the ritual of putting on my EDC this morning and managed to forget my glasses (everyone looks like a crazed nutjob when I don't have my glasses on). I keep meaning to leave a spare set in my truck and my wife's car. For now though, all that's in my wife's car is my G26 because it's of little use to me today. I never really considered my glasses as part of my daily kit until now because that were just a part of my face. I've discovered that they're probably the most important item. I don't even have a spare set with my bug out gear.

When the world goes to heck I guess I'm just going to sit on the curb and wait for it. I don't deserve to survive and repopulate the earth with the UofL cheerleaders as I had planned.

Bummer. I can't think of the name but there is an online store people at work use. Glasses start at about $6. I'll find out next week. I can get by with cheap spare reading glasses from the thrift store.
Once in a while I practice without my glasses. Just clear gear and for me its not too bad. Den

Excelent point, YZ. As I recall, that FBI shoot out in Miami involved a collision with bad guys that knocked an agent's glasses off and he couldn't find the weapon he dropped.

Oh, I can get all the glasses I want through my current insurance policy. I just haven't taken the time to do so yet. It's on the calendar now though.

That really sucks. Scary thought.

When you don't have your glasses they are all U of FL cheerleaders. Glass half full.

My 10 year old granddaughter says "Grandpa, you've got 'old eyes'". I believe she is right. If I forgot my glasses, I'd have to carry a shotgun and someone to point me in the right direction.
