      If you wear glasses in real life: Do you wear them in dreams?

      Hello everyone!

      I, like possibly some of you, wear glasses in my everyday life. I was thinking about the possibility of a reality check that I could do anywhere, (i.e. if a digital clock is not present) and I thought, maybe I could check if I'm wearing glasses.

      So my question is, during dreams, have you ever noticed wearing or not wearing glasses?

      Thanks

      I wear glasses most of the time in waking life (though I do occasionally wear contacts).
      I have never consciously checked if I am wearing glasses in my dreams, but I can't recall a dream where I was.
      I have had many dreams where it was quite clear that I was not wearing glasses though (looking into mirror, being underwater / in the rain etc)
      Dreams are simple.
      It's the painfully simple things the human mind cannot comprehend.
      After all your mind is trained to understand the complexity of the waking world,
      not the simplicity of the dream world.

      Ever since my eyes started getting irritated from contacts, I switched to glasses. I have never worn glasses in a dream. As stated above, I once looked in a mirror and was not wearing them. Note, however, that my vision is fine in my dreams without glasses, except in one lucid where I tried to make my vision better

      hmmm, interesting, I do wear glasses in real life and have never really thought about it, in my next dream or LD I will check
      From my rotting body,
      flowers shall grow
      and I am in them
      and that is eternity.

      I should have probably mentioned that.
      My vision is fine in dreams as well, even though I'm not wearing glasses.

      not necessarily, you could say that about anything. Clothing, jewelry, etc.

      I wear glasses irl. Although I've only had glasses for a couple of years.

      Normally throughout my day, I don't notice my glasses at all. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. In dreams, I've never thought about them.

      In a dream, the only things that exist is what you are thinking about on some level. I have never thought about them mid-dream, and thus have never worn them. Although, if I did think about them, they might appear on my face.

      Yes, I believe if you were to look for them in your dreams, you would indeed be wearing glasses.
      It's just like summoning things, if you try to summon say your mobile phone, the easiest way would probably be to search for it in your pockets, and you'd most likely find it.

      If you expect something to be somewhere there is a high chance that it it will.

      I wear glasses in real-life, but never on my dreams. At least I don't notice them. I even made a thread about this here: http://www.dreamviews.com/f12/could-dream-sign-111319/
      I wanted to use it as a reality check but I never did anyway. I think I will try it.

      I wear glasses as well, and do not need to use them in my dreams.

      I wear glasses in real life and have never noticed them on my face in a dream. I never really have a ton of body awareness, i just kinda move through the dream like a camera or something.

      I have glasses, but only wear them for watching movies on TV. I don't wear glasses in my regular dreams, though I have put them on during a lucid dream to increase clarity, which works.
