<VV> OIl filter magnet

[Ebarr19 at aol.com]

I had a funny thing happen with my glasses, I was trimming an orange tree  
and got saw dust in my right eye, it was watering some as I rubbed it with  
blurred vision, I went to my back garage for some time maybe 20 min. still 
had  blurred vision in the right eye, went into the house and had my wife put 
eye  drops in the eye, another 20 min. go by and I go back out the garage 
and notice  my right lens on the floor !!!! Blurred vision solved !!!!

That's an interesting datum; I see your  point.  It made me think of
the situation with my eyeglasses.

I  went through half a dozen pairs of glasses through my teens and
early  twenties.  Now I cannot legally drive without corrective lenses,
so I  finally disciplined myself not to take them off, as they're 100%
less  likely to get sat on or lost that way.  I've had this pair a  long
time.

My glasses could still get smashed if something smashes  my face, true,
but if that happens I likely have bigger problems.   :-)
