Description
Yesterday around 3pm I lost a single contact lens. I was walking past the Lima Public Library on Market Street when it slipped out of my eye while I was adjusting my backpack. It’s a left-eye Acuvue Oasys 1-Day, clear with a faint blue edge that shows in bright light. It was in a small blister pack, but the pack tore in my pocket and the lens dropped somewhere between the library and the bus stop. I really need it back—email [email protected] if you find it, and we can meet near Market Street in Lima, OH.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
