Google Glass will support prescription lenses later this year

This shouldn't really be a surprise, because Google has said before that it was working to give those who already wear glasses a way to use Google Glass. But, Google has made it official, and said that Google Glass will support prescription lenses later this year, although early adopters should keep in mind that the current Explorer Edition of Glass will not be getting a way to use prescription lenses...

I am going to check this out when it becomes available. Google always innovates. This is the most curious I have been about a piece of technology in a VERY long time.

don't understand why did you get thumbs down? if this is not innovation what is it then?

The risk of privacy invasion is too high. Plus the idea seems too novel.

exactly what I have said in previous post that there will be separate google glass that will clip on existing glasses.

Hmmm I'm intrigued. I'd like one that can clip on my glasses but I wear contacts a lot...would I need two pairs?

American Thanksgiving is the last Thursday in November. Hannukah is from November 27th til December 5th. Christmas is, as always, December 25th. Kwanzaa is December 26th til January 1st. And, of course, New Years is January 1st.

The Holiday Season.
