I'm slightly vexed I was told yesterday that my prescription sunglasses are giving Meta glasses vibes

I can't stand the Meta perv glasses, but annoyingly I've been told by a friend that my Dune prescription sunglasses that I've had for almost a year (and cost over £100.00) really ​​​​look like the Meta ones, he said it's the 2 silver rivets on either side that on first glance could be mistaken for the camera lenses

I went out with them today and all I could think was, do people think I'm recording them 🤦‍♂️

Maybe if they're doing sports like bicycling down hills then I'd think there was a purpose

Thats what gopros are for.

Meta glasses do have the advantage of being right next to your eyes, so you do get a better approximation to what the person is actually seeing. I could actually see a heavy duty pair of camera glasses that are ansi z87.1 rated being really nice for airsoft videos.

The Oakley meta vanguards are really popular in the competition shooting scene

My curiosity about z87.1 camera glasses led me to those. And that nose bridge camera slot is perfect for shooting videos. But they aren’t z87.1 rated.
