# Because there are a lot of detailed and complicated halachot in defining these 4 domains, in a city where there's no Eruv, someone who isn't an expert shouldn't carry into another domain unless one knows for certain that it's permissible.<ref>Kitzur S"A 82:2</ref>

==Defining the act of carrying==
==Defining the act of carrying==
# Picking up an object is called Akirah and putting it down is called Hanacha. Both of these actions are forbidden. Therefore, one may not give an object to a non-Jew who will carry from a Reshut HaYachid to a Reshut HaRabim or Karmelit because in that case the Jew will have done the Akirah, rather the non-Jew should pick up the object himself. Similarly, if a non=Jew brings something from one domain to another, the Jew shouldn't take it from his hand because if he did the Jew will have violated Hanacha, rather the non-Jew should put it down.<ref>Kitzur S"A 82:3</ref>

# It is forbidden to bring something into the public domain if it isn't a clothing or jewelry. Even within the category of jewelry certain things are rabbinically forbidden to wear in the public domain, however, the minhag is to be lenient for all jewelry, yet a Yarei Shamayim should be strict upon himself. <Ref>Kitzur S"A 84:1-2</ref>

==Wearing a watch==
# It is permitted to wear a watch which a person wouldn't remove if it stopped working such as a gold watch because then the watch is considered a jewelry. However, if one is not in an eruv, a person shouldn't wear a regular watch which a person would remove from their hand if it stopped working, but those who are lenient have what to rely on.<ref>Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 18:27</ref>

==A hearing aid==
# A person who is hard of hearing may wear a hearing-aid on [[Shabbat]], even in a public domain without an eruv. One need not be concerned with considerations of electricity or carrying as long as the hearing-aid is securely in his ear, and he turned it on before [[Shabbat]] and left it on until after [[Shabbat]]. <ref>Shemirat [[Shabbat]] Kehilchata (perek 18 halacha 14), Yalkut Yosef (siman 328 seif 328 and siman 301 seif 38). See footnote 39 there where he quotes Hacham Ovadiah, Rav Shlomoh Zalamn Auerbach, Rav Henkin, and the Tzitz Eleizer who ruled leniently as well. </ref>

# A person who regularly wears glasses may wear them in a public domain on [[Shabbat]]. He must wear them on his nose, and may not carry them in his pocket or wear them on his forehead or around his neck. <Ref> Yalkut Yosef (siman 301 seif 31), Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata (perek 18 halacha 16) </ref>

Rav Mordechai Eliyahu (comments on Kitzur S"A 84:6) writes that one may wear glasses in the public domain, however, one who usually takes them off in the street shouldn't go out with them without an eruv. </ref>
# A person who does not regularly wear glasses but wears, for example, reading glasses for reading only and otherwise carries them in his pocket, may not wear the reading glasses in a public domain. <Ref>Yalkut Yosef siman 301 seif 32, Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata (perek 18 halacha 17). </ref>Bifocals which may be worn for both reading and regular use may be worn in a public domain on [[Shabbat]]. <ref>Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata perek 18 halacha 17 </ref>
