There are lots of different colors you can choose from for your glasses lenses, but yellow should not be one of them. Yellow glasses are the worst of many worlds. To start, they’re tinted glasses that don’t do much in the sun. The yellow is never dark enough to protect your eyes from the UV rays. Since they’re light, they might make you think you can wear them indoors but they’re a poor choice for that because then you’re wearing annoying colorful glasses that don’t even hide your eyes, which is the real reason to wear such glasses indoors. It is said that yellow glasses are good for driving at night but only your biggest gear head uncle would have designated night driving glasses. But being nerdy isn’t their real crime. Their biggest problem is that yellow glasses are sleazy, and not in a chill, fun to have around sort of way. They’re the preferred tint of glasses for Hunter S. Thompson, Ali G, and Bono—a cursed cultural triumvirate that does not need imitating. Reach for pink, blue, green, purple, or whatever other color you please. Just not yellow.
