You know when something small makes your life so much easier that you want to tell everyone about it?
Well… these readers. THESE readers. They’re one of the biggest reasons I dusted off this old blog and came back.
Yes.
A pair of glasses brought me out of retirement. 😂
If you’ve known me for any length of time, you know I lose my reading glasses at least 14 times a day. I’ve left them on the counter, in the pantry, in my car, on top of the dryer, and once — ON MY HEAD — for an hour. (I wish I were exaggerating.)
But then I found these bifocal readers with a clear top and magnification bottom, and suddenly? I wasn’t taking them on and off. I wasn’t misplacing them. I wasn’t wandering through the house like a confused Gen-X raccoon looking for shiny objects.
I was FREE.
Free to see. Free to read. Free to age gracefully without losing my mind.
And the number of people who’ve stopped me to ask about them?
HIGH. Very high.
I’ve “sold” so many pairs just by wearing them that I realized I was basically doing unpaid Amazon affiliate work.
So here we are — my first official “I love this thing so much I returned to blogging” post!
Here’s the exact pair I wear and love in a set of three different colors:
Set of 3 Bifocal Reading Glasses
(That's an affiliate link, which just means Amazon sends me a tiny commission — at no extra cost to you — if you buy through it.)
They’re cute, practical, and absolutely perfect for anyone who is forever misplacing their readers (or just wants to avoid the constant on-off shuffle). And since the top is clear, I never feel like I’m wearing “readers” at all.
Because I don't yet need glasses all the time, I sometimes have trouble remembering to put them on in the morning before I leave the house. So I've bought two sets (six pairs). I have a pair at my devotional area, a pair in the bathroom, a pair in my car, and several on my vanity table.
One quick warning:
This company sells three different lens styles. The glasses I love have a magnified area shaped like an igloo, which provides a subtle lens transition. There's also a design with an upside-down igloo. I made the mistake of ordering those glasses, but they made me dizzy. A third design has three transitinos in the lens. I haven't tried them, nor do I intend to. I'm sticking with the igloo!
So if you explore other options, make sure the readers are designed like the ones I linked above.
If you end up trying them, let me know what you think. We “quiet nesters” have to help each other keep track of the little things that make life easier. 🪺💛
