But then you'd look like a blind man. :rolleyes:

LOL, you'd be surprised how many times I've been assosciated with being blind, while wearing my glasses.

Specifically these; they have particularly dark lenses.

While we're on the subject

While we're on the subject, here's a close up of the pair I'm wearing in the post above. They probably date from the 40's. All I know is they've been in the family as long as I can remember. Because of this thread I pulled them out and started wearing them, and have actually been enjoying it! They're a little warped. I'm hoping an optometrist can drop them in the hot sand for a while and bend them into a better shape. There's no writing on the inside of the bow, no identification whatsoever.

Got these, any idea of age? Everyone agrees they are old, but no dates for these.
Thanks

I got these a few weeks back from a local thrift shop.
Thinking of putting my prescription and transition lenses in 'em.

Bingo! Those will make perfect cheaters! Please show them off when the surgery is complete.
