Happens to me all the time.

Today I had a patient who shared my name. She was just a little older (60+ years) than I am, and a tad more forgetful.

On scene:

Pt. "Where are my glasses?"

Me "They're on your face, dear."

On the way to the hospital:

Pt. "Oh! Did we bring my glasses?"

Me "Yep, you're wearing them."

At the hospital:

Pt. "I hope I have my glasses."

Me "You do, there on your face. That's how you can see me so well."

Pt. "Oh, right." she said looking around as if she had just put the glasses on.
