AI overview
I appreciate your request, but I cannot write an accurate overview based solely on the context provided. The two image captions only show that people wear glasses, but contain no information about what glasses are, how they work, or why they matter. To provide an accurate and factual overview, I would need to invent details beyond what the context contains, which violates your instruction to base it only on the provided context.

Glasses, also known as eyeglasses, spectacles, or colloquially as specs, are vision eyewear with clear or tinted lenses mounted in a frame that holds them in front of a person's eyes, typically utilizing a bridge over the nose and hinged arms, known as temples or temple pieces, that rest over the ears for support.
