Glasses for the man with no ears

Thursday, May 7, 2009
A Texas-based artist has come up with a novel way to make sure you never misplace your glasses - attach them to a facial piercing.

James Sooy teamed up with Oliver Gilson, who designs body jewellery, to produce the frameless glasses, which are screwed to a piercing through the bridge of the nose.

Sooy has plans to make the glasses available to the public. You can track his progress at his site, piercedglasses.com.

Once the commercial side is up and running, Sooy can expect a mail order from one Mark Brandon "Chopper" Read.

Do you think Sooy is onto a winner? Leave your comment below.

How are you supposed to take them off for a shower? The piercings would get aggravated having to unscrew them every night!
That would be great! My hubby's constantly misplacing them. I often wish I could attach them to his head!
i dont see my grandma getting these anytime soon, a piercing to hold your glasses....lololol, whats next, sticky tattoos that can hold up boob tubes??
I would want a serious look at how they attached to the peircing before getting any, but potentially a very good idea.
haha maybe he didnt think of that...or he has anti fog glasses
what happens if the glasses fog up and you need to wipe them?
