Hey, four eyes! If you don't have 20/20 vision, you know that glasses are not just an accessory, but a way of life. In the legacy of film and television history, popular culture has tarnished the way we think glasses provide clothing. Ninety percent of the time, they're a shortcut to making a "front shot" of a character later transformed by a romantic comedy. They became the movie invisibility cloak of popular characters wearing glasses: a rude smart man; Take off your glasses: You mean she was always pretty?! What's the difference between Clark Kent and Superman? Glasses (and red underwear).
Yes, we can all wear contact lenses, but choosing to wear glasses is a fearless way to maintain your brand. Go ahead, suppose I read, and see if I care! Sure, dozens of editorials prescribe a certain style of glasses for your "heart," "oval," or "square" face, but I think this everyday accessory suits your personality more than your features. Below I break down popular eyewear styles and what they reveal about who you are.

Large photo frames are for extroverts who like to hear themselves talk. They love the spectacle and drama of glasses. Lenses may not be an everyday necessity, but wearers wear them because they like the fanfare of adjusting the accessory up and down - their nose has their index finger on top, their thumb on the bottom and the rest open. It went from people who called themselves "fashion lovers," to drama teachers. This is a gift for the neoliberal mom who likes to buy jewelry at the MoMA gift shop. Besides, she loves dinner parties, honey.
