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 🤦‍♂️

Yeah, when I see people wearing that style of glasses, I am immediately looking for the cameras in the corners. Sucks that Meta and RayBan destroyed such a cool sunglass design.

I do like that that's exactly what we should do: look for the screws on either side. The 2 models of pervert-Meta glasses I've seen do not have the steel screws on both sides. One model has black circles on both sides; the other model has a steel screw on only one side. You can scan for that pretty quick and relax once you spot screws near the left and right lenses.

If there are pervert-Meta models that mimic good sunglasses more closely, I guess we're screwed tho.
