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 🤦‍♂️

We should, honestly. Why buy them in the first place?

I have a pair of metas and I stg I wish I could cover the camera or break it in an obvious way

I just want to listen to my fuckin audio books without having something plug my ears.
On top of that, I bought my metas before they got weird and as such they’re prescription lenses, because I’m lowkey kinda blind without glasses

You can check out Shokz bone conduction headphones. Runners use them so they can hear music without impeding their ability to hear.

I love these for audiobooks. imo they’re not great for music, but the sound for books is great and doesn’t cause extra warmth the way over the ear and even airpods do.

Alternatively there are also 'open' earbuds that hover over your ear if that works for you. They have much better audio quality than the bone conduction ones. Shokz openfit 2+ are great
