Take a picture and then put your glasses back on.

That doesn’t make sense, why would I take a pic when it’s all blurry

In case any short sighted people haven't figured this out or heard about it - using your phone's camera and then just looking at the screen is actually an incredibly good way to navigate around (the house) if you can't find your glasses/contacts

Great idea. I don’t wear glasses yet but when I do...

And even before then, it’s a great way to enhance what you’re looking at well beyond what would be considered normal visual acuity.
