Background
Glasses are frames bearing lenses, worn in front of the eyes either for vision correction or eye protection from light. Most are otherwise purely cosmetic, but some provide bonuses to players.
Variants
Authority glasses
Large reflective glasses that are synonymous with NCR Rangers.
Eyeglasses
"Sunco" eyeglasses are used to correct vision problems people may have. They have rounded square, black frames.
Reading glasses
Reading glasses are classic fabricated glasses for those who suffer from presobyopia, a condition that comes with age and makes focusing on near objects, specifically text, more difficult. From the ancient Greek, meaning "old eyes" or "elder eyes".
Child reading glasses
Child reading glasses are the children's version of reading glasses. When worn by adults, they are much larger and will hover in front of the wearer's forehead.
Sunglasses
Slightly shaded glasses to protect the eyes from the sun.
Tinted reading glasses
Tinted reading glasses are similar to regular reading glasses, but have dark tinted lenses.
Tortiseshell glasses
"Protoglo" tortiseshell glasses 
are dark, tinted spectacles, with frames made from a brownish orange flecked plastic. They are rather difficult to find.
Lucky shades
Cosmetically identical to sunglasses, the shades add +1 to Luck.
Cryptochromatic spectacles
Special eye wear developed by the Chinese to decipher hidden encrypted messages, like the sequence needed in order to gain access to the Chinese intelligence bunker.
Desmond's eyeglasses
Worn by Desmond Lockheart, these glasses provide a bonus to Explosives and Small Guns.
Dr. Li's glasses
Unique glasses that were cut from the final game, and were meant to be worn by Dr. Madison Li.
Dr. Klein's glasses
Glasses that used to belong to Dr. Klein before he became a think tank. They provide a bonus to Intelligence and Repair.
Dr. Mobius' glasses
Glasses worn by Dr. Mobius before he became a think tank. They provide a bonus to Intelligence and Explosives.
