I don't know, trying to make themselves cool or a "fashion statement". I have been having to wear glasses and contacts since the third grade. I can't stand them honestly. I wear it because I have to, not because its a fashion statement...it just seems to make light of those of us that actually have to wear them not for aesthetic reasons but for medical ones. And my eyesight is pretty bad. It's also a reminder that there's isnt!

OK. I was just curious. I can't see 5 feet in front of me without my glasses or contacts and honestly, it's certainly inconvenient but wearing glasses doesn't bother me. Sometimes I think I look better with them although I mostly wear contacts (and now have to haul reading glasses everyone on top of that LOL). I have natural dark circles under my eyes and glasses can mask that.
Not sure I see the problem. How would anyone know they're non-prescription?
My experience with this was with my best friend. I've worn glasses since third grade and he still has 20/20 vision. He became very into fashion and his appearance in his 20's. I was over at his apartment and found a pair of thick-framed glasses in his bathroom. I told him that having bad vision is like a disability. If walking with a cane became trendy would he start walking with one?
How would anyone know if the glasses are "FAKE", vision can change over time,and why would anyone care?
Edward,
It doesn't make me angry or anything I was just curious. I was at a boutique recently in Portland, Oregon and they sold very expensive frames with no prescription. I am nearly blind without my glasses and HATE wearing them. They are always falling off and getting wet. I guess the people I've seen wearing false glasses are usually vain hipsters.

Fake lenses are usually "flat" in the frame.
