Just Stuff by Jan The other day I was driving to work when I reached up to nudge my glasses up a bit and the left lens popped out. It dropped into my lap and fell to the floor before I realized what had happened. The strand of fishing line that held my lens in place broke. All of a sudden my vision fuzzed on my left side. It wasn’t enough to make me pull over; I don’t even think I lifted my foot off the accelerator. But it was definitely a weird sensation. When one eye has the benefit of correction and the other doesn’t and needs it, it’s not like everything stays clear on one side and goes blurry on the other, with a firm dividing line down the middle. It’s more like the clearness and the blurriness try to mesh and the only way to really see clearly is to close the eye on the lens-less side. So I drove the rest of the way into work with my glasses on and my left eye closed in a perpetual wink. I wear bifocals. I need glasses to see things up close; I need glasses to see things at a distance. I’m blind as a bat without my glasses, but I couldn’t very well walk around the office with only one lens winking at everyone, so I took my glasses off in the parking lot. I had to squint to find the elevator, let alone find the right button. A co-worker saw me sitting at my desk winking at my computer screen and offered to let me use a pair of those over-the-counter reading glasses. She had three pair, each a different strength and I figured surely one of them would do the trick. I was wrong. Each pair just gave me a different level queasiness in my stomach. I spent part of the morning squinting at the computer screen without any glasses, part wearing my glasses and winking at the screen and part wearing my sunglasses, looking like I was suffering from a horrendous hangover. And by noon I had a horrible headache. I knew the optometry shop could fix my glasses in a few minutes, but it was across town and I was just too busy to get away. Consequently, I finally broke down and taped my lens in place with scotch tape, looking a bit like a nerd from the 70’s. All I needed was a pocket protector for my pens! Of course the lens wasn’t seated quite right, so I had to tilt my head just right to keep things in focus, but it worked. I was afraid to cut the filament that once held my lens in place in case they would need it when I took them in to be fixed. So, I had this strand of fishing line dangling down tickling my cheek. It looked like an antennae or mini curb-finder. My staff laughed at me whenever I came out of my office. I was either squinting, wearing dark glasses, or looking like a nerd with a wireless mike taped to my cheek. And on a few occasions, as I was walking to the ladies’ room, or the break room, the tape would give way and the lens would drop to the floor, leaving me feeling like a drunk maneuvering down the hall. We were leaving town the next morning for the long weekend and I didn’t want to spend the entire weekend wandering around with a taped lens and feeling a fine filament on my face. So it was imperative that I get to the fix-it shop before it closed at seven. Of course I got busy trying to finish things up before leaving work and it was 6:40 before I realized I what time it was. I had 20 minutes to get downstairs, down the street a block to the parking garage and from 1st south to 6400. I raced as fast as I could down the street pulling my computer bag-on-wheels in one hand and clutching my glasses in the other (I didn’t want to risk losing the lens), squinting all the way. I didn’t put them on until I got to the car. Luck was with me. I hit all the lights just right, there was very little traffic and no traffic cops. I pulled into the optical shop parking and saw that the lights were still on and I could see someone inside. But when I pulled at the front door, it was locked. My heart dropped. I looked at my watch and it was 7:05. I was going to have nerd glasses all weekend. As I turned to walk away I heard the lock turn. The manager opened the door, chuckled at my taped lens and dangling fishing line and said “Looks like you need some help.” I didn’t have to wink or squint or wear nerd glasses all weekend and with all my squinting, I gained a new appreciation for the term “turn a blind eye.” Watches • Engraving • Repairs Diamonds • Custom Design Help!
