I’m sure many of you have seen this image floating around online at some point.
It seems a rather neat idea, though I’d be worried about any sort of accident, or even potential fight, ripping that piercing right out.
But, what if the lenses attached with magnets instead?..
Why not make the lenses small enough to just fit on your eyeball?
Because then you have to touch your eyeball and that’s gross
No you touch the lenses.
Not if you’re any fun. Here’s a new word for some: worming
Because having continuous infections on the top of the bridge of your nose is way more fun.
I already have that, looking to have my lenses like not rubbing against my eyebrows…
Why would you want the lenses touching your eyeball? I would imagine that’d be very uncomfortable, not to mention messy. I’d be cleaning my glasses every time my eyes changed direction. 🤣 😅 🥸😏
You do realize that Satan was referring to contact lenses right?
Because then you couldn’t look nearly as cyberpunk
I want silver ones like Molly Millions.
I think this would be painful over time and probably make that skin saggy, as it stretches it out over time.
I have a magnet implant in my hand and it’s uncomfortable to have something as small as a screw hanging on it.

Be careful with hanging stuff from your magnet implant: the pressure on your skin isn’t necessarily great but it’s constant and unrelenting, and you could cause necrosis of your skin the magnet pinches in as little as one hour. That’s mostly the reason why I never pursued magnet implants to attach things to my body (and also because I want to retain the ability to get an MRI done)
Not suggesting the magnets be implanted, just mounted onto the ends of the nose bridge piercing, easy enough to remove…
I was wondering why there’s nose pads; but looking closer I think there’s a pin sticking out of each lense that gets inserted into the implanted nose bridge making a hinge of sorts. (instead of a screw) The lenses are held firmly in two axis; but can rotate up/down to rest on the nose pads, while being removable.
I’d be worried about bumping/catching them on anything and ripping that piercing/implant out too, but I don’t think magnets would be strong enough to stop them moving around with any sort of g-forces.
As someone who sleeps face down quite a bit, I’d never try this. It would definitely drive me nuts just trying sleep with that bridge in, plus it would get snagged on bedding/clothes/towels/etc.
Oh no, to me this is only a hypothetical idea. I’d never sleep with such a piercing thingy either.
But you do get the almost neat idea of daily wear right?
Hell I dunno…
All the reasons listed here aside, for this eyeglass apparatus pierced through the bridge of the nose.
Tell me that you can romantically kiss your significant other with this trailer hitch looking apparatus between their eyes.
Not looking for romance, just looking for vision that won’t break.
If the lenses attach magnetically, what’s the worst that can happen, they snap loose?
You break your lenses every time you shake your head
You could take the lenses off, and the nose piercing could still scrape your partner’s face.
Sorry, still can’t reach my dick.
Jokes aside, those glasses look awesome, except like don’t screw them in place, use magnets instead…
Can’t wait to grab my screwdriver and unbolt my glasses from my face before I shower.
Didn’t I already say that’s a bad idea, and use magnets instead?
This is how you rip a pillowcase
Also, this thing doesn’t rip my pillow case, and I sleep while wearing it (the spiked watch band).
Magnets detach fairly easily though.
Yeah idk man. I don’t think this is it…
And not really practical, tbh. Anytime you move your eyebrows or change your expression, the lenses would move, changing the focus of your vision.
That’s no different from me with spring loaded earpieces. If anything, that would keep the glasses more fixed, considering the nose pieces holding it steady.
Oh it absolutely would be worse. You have only one mount point per lens vs two in regular glasses. Plus you don’t get the lateral stability of the full frame. If the nose piece actually bolted on to bone, it would be a different story. Pierced through flesh, it will have elasticity.
I’d prefer that honestly, at least I can easily twist the lenses to best match my vision.
Looks like a terrible idea. Just get regular glasses or eye contacts.

Ok, off-topic, kinda, but I just remembered that I saw a Google Glass on the wild. I don’t if it was THE Google Glass, but I found very neat. It was a guy that seemed to be paralyzed from the neck down. His chair was controlled by small movement he made with his head. There was a thing that looked like a straw going near his mouth and a smartphone attached to the chair. I wanted to ask what he was seeing through the Glass, but I didn’t.
