HOW TO MAINTAIN GOOD EYE HEALTH
Remember the old line about girls and glasses and men and passes?
So over. Nowadays, eyeglasses are a fashion accessory for celebrities
and women on TV, even for those who don't actually need them to
see, says eyewear designer/optician/stylist Alexander Daas. 'A frame
can completely change your image; it’s the ultimate accessory,' he
says. 'It can make you look more intelligent or more funky,
depending on the style.' With style comes cost; some of these new
glasses can set you back hundreds. One of Daas' clients is Jenny
McCarthy, who wears his glasses in order to see the teleprompter in
her new role as one of the gabby women on 'The View.' Women like
McCarthy look good in anything, as do a long list of other celebrities,
young and old, who rock a pair of glasses with no diminution in their
sex appeal
