Glasses are a crude human technology. Normally, they are intended to enhance eyesight when the wearer suffers from an optical deficiency. (Humans have not developed a successful method of replacing inefficient optic organs, and their repair techniques are as yet too expensive for common use.) Other humans wear glasses to limit the overly intense light from the Sun, or simply to look "cool". Humans are a very strange species indeed.

When Doctor Onishi was abducted by the Predacons, the only thing they left behind was his glasses. Battle Protocol! He somehow had them back when he was being interrogated by the psycho-probe, so perhaps he was carrying a spare pair. The Secret of the Ruins

Live action continuity

Captain Archibald Witwicky had a personal pair of spectacles at the time of his expedition to the Arctic. When he discovered Megatron, the Decepticon burned the location of the AllSpark onto Witwicky's glasses (which also had the effect of driving him blind and insane). Over a century later, his descendant Sam tried to sell the glasses on eBay. Transformers

The glasses were later included as a "personal memento" in Sam's "long-distance relationship kit", along with a Sector Seven badge. Revenge of the Fallen
