If you\u2019re lucky, they\u2019ll turn up eventually but if not, you\u2019ll have no choice but to fork out for a new pair, which can be expensive.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re always losing your glasses, don\u2019t worry, it happens! But do take our tips on board and do something about it. With these five easy solutions from SelectSpecs, you\u2019ll never be without your glasses again.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Give Your Specs a Home<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re\u00a0guilty of putting your glasses down in the closest spot and then forgetting where you&#8217;ve placed them, one of the easiest ways to avoid losing your glasses is by changing your habits. Pick a special spot to store your glasses (it could be by your bed or on your desk) and ALWAYS put them there when you take them off. Of course, this one only works at home, but if you\u2019re anything like us, that\u2019s where your glasses go missing the most!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Keep Them in a Case<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A case is an essential item for any glasses wearer, but is especially important if you have a habit of losing your specs.

A case is larger than a pair of glasses which makes them harder to lose and it means that if you do misplace them for a while, there\u2019s less chance of them getting damaged\u00a0or broken.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/d9qzjwuieyamt.cloudfront.net\/public\/en\/res\/images\/items\/fullsized\/123_45_1.jpg\" alt=\"Select Specs glasses case\" width=\"650\" height=\"325\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Make Your Glasses Glow in the Dark<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re prone to putting down your glasses anywhere and everywhere, we have a solution that just might help \u2013 apply a small strip of glow-in-the-dark paint to you frames. Then, whenever you misplace your glasses, simply turn off the lights and you&#8217;ll find them in an instant.
