Google Glass is a great product, but so far it couldn't be used with prescription lenses. From now on, people who can afford buying Google Glasses will also be able to use this device with prescription lenses.

Google decided to surprise those lucky people who have a chance to be Glass Explorers, people who were privileged to be the first ones who will use smart glasses of this company, by presenting Google Glass with prescription.


Google presented four new titanium frames for their smart glasses that now can be used also as spectacles.


“Titanium collection” of frames offers to its users four different frames for only 225 dollars, but, users will have to put their Google Glass on it.

Users will also have to go to the optics store to set their prescription lens, and Google advises not to take electronic unit to them, they should only take the frame.


Original smart glasses which can’t be used with prescription glass will still be available in five different colors.


“We think that new frames will satisfy most desires of the public and we hope that other companies will start designing their frames which can function with our smart glasses” said Steve Lee from Google.


The company is trying to make Google Glass socially acceptable because there is a lot of resist against these glasses, and there is one example when recently in Ohio it was told to a man and a woman to leave the cinema because of these glasses.
