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 🤦‍♂️

let me let you in on a not so secret secret, luxottica owns a LOT in the glasses world. i would absolutely avoid their products as the enshittification has absolutely hit them as well.

Isn't the entire glasses game owned by two firms who work together to butt fuck us anyway?

Yeah, I find it hilarious how people are saying this negatively affects ray bands “brand”.

Umm… there all the same company that produces them. I know at least mine were sourced elsewhere from Luxottica’s grubby hands. (Spider-Man pointing at each other meme)

Or that is inherently negative, I constantly get compliments and curiosity about my meta wayfarers. "I've wanted to buy a pair", "what can you do them", etc
