Glasses generally allow people to see out of and into the eyes of the wearer. The subjects of this trope, however, have glasses that are reminiscent of the mirror windows of crime-show examination rooms - they can see you, but you can't see them. This is not a threatening gesture like Scary Shiny Glasses. It may be permanent, but it isn't silly Nerd Glasses. Perhaps the artist was lazy, but that's not what this is about. Characters with Opaque Lenses are usually hiding something. Maybe they're just emotionless - their hidden eyes, the so-called "window to the soul," hammering home the fact that you have no idea what they are thinking. Maybe they are hiding Glowing Eyes or Red Eyes, Take Warning. Maybe they are disguising themselves. But regardless of the reason, when you look at them you get the feeling like you're missing something. Often, it's done for Rule of Cool or because in animation, it's a time saving shortcut. In many cases, the glasses are only opaque when necessary for dramatic effect. In reality, the opaque effect is due to reflection and refraction of light off the lenses at just the right angle. Quite frequently, this shows up in instances where the lighting of the scene does not plausibly allow for this. See also: Opaque Nerd Glasses, Scary Shiny Glasses. Compare Sinister Shades, which have the same effect, but you expect it because, well, they're actually supposed to hide the character's eyes. Examples |

Parodied in the webcomic Real Life Comics: When Cliff is introduced, he has see-through glasses despite the fact that the only other character in the strip wearing glasses, Dave, had opaque lenses. The very next strip had Cliff asking Dave about this, prompting Dave to reveal that they aren't just glasses, but rather something akin to Geordi La Forge's VISOR. | |

Paul Wan from Get Backers, as seen above, is a bizarre example, if only because his sunglasses are actually opaque. He is hiding his stigma, but Kazuki used contact lenses for the same purpose, so who knows? Oddly enough, Ban has a pair just like Paul's, but they're normal. | |

The koalas from Blue Moon Blossom all wear glasses with solid white lenses that completely obscure their eyes from all angles and in all lighting conditions. In the koalas' first appearance, the glasses even shine in the dark like Scary Shiny Glasses, adding to their apparently Ambiguously Evil nature, but once the bunny and dino make friends with a koala, the koalas' glasses end up coming across as Opaque Nerd Glasses instead. | |

Miki Yoshikawa is really fond of this trope in both of her works - Flunk Punk Rumble and Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches - to the point that it appears many times in every scene that involves characters with glasses. Usually when the character(s) acts weird or comedic, but also when they are seen from a distance, in which case it's probably just a case of Lazy Artist. | |

Once you pass the milestone of getting a monster to class B, his glasses lose the opaque look and he seems friendlier.

Azumanga Daioh: Yomi's glasses go from transparent to opaque (a light blue) for a few different reasons: annoyance, dumbfoundedness, sneaky idea, uh, that "Limiter override!" thing, y'know. Mr. Kimura's glasses are always opaque. But given that he's a Dirty Old Man (and not shy about it), you can be pretty sure what he's looking at anyway. |

Inui of The Prince of Tennis, to the point where it becomes a Running Gag that no one ever sees his eyes. The height of the gag comes when he breaks his glasses during a match, so we're expecting to finally see his eyes— and then it turns out he has a large case full of pairs of spare glasses. Rikkaidai's Yagyuu also qualifies for this trope. | |

Courage the Cowardly Dog: Muriel & Eustace have glasses that obscure their eyes, as well as Eustace's whole family. Similarly, all of the recurring normal, non-villainous human characters except the General had their eyes obscured. This seems to emphasize Courage's status as a Cassandra type, as nobody else sees what's obvious to him. Subverted in the Hothead episode (though it's fairly surreal looking). | |

El Goonish Shive: Tedd has a justified example, with a pair of high-tech glasses from his father's government job that have features like video recording and a (since removed) X-Ray Vision mode. He originally wore them everywhere because he was insecure about his face, but he eventually stopped wearing them after becoming more comfortable with his appearance. Also averted when he gets actual prescription glasses, which are not opaque.note Tedd is a girl in the linked page. Mr. Verres' eyes have never been seen since he's always shown wearing these type of glasses. The reason for the opaqueness has never been explicitly explained, but they're possibly also high tech glasses since he is Tedd's dad. Arthur's assistant Sybil has a pair of unexplained opaque glasses that she always wears. It helps maintain her role as The Stoic. |

Rei from March Comes in Like a Lion is subject to having opaque lenses half the time, usually to emphasize his meekness. They do clear up when they need to be seen. | |

The "lenses" of Daredevil's mask are just for show. Since he's blind, any eyeholes would be pointless anyway. | |

In Strider, Matic wears a set of opaque round glasses at all times. We never get to see his eyes. | |

In The Sandman (1989), the Corinthian's shades might be these on occasion, Depending on the Artist. They're either Sunglasses at Night drawn in fairly realistic style to hide his teeth-eyes, or stylized black circles on his face that hide his eyes entirely. | |

Parodied on South Park with Cartman's police officer outfit. It includes a pair of shades which ALWAYS reflect a mountain sunset, no matter what he is actually looking at. | |

Cho Hakkai of Saiyuki is an interesting half-example; his monocle is usually—though not always—drawn as opaque. As Hakkai is a Stepford Smiler of the first order, this provides a helpful visual distinction between his outward pleasantry and his inner secrets. | |

Ichabod in Far Out There wears a HUGE pair of glasses like this. For some reason, his are the only regular glasses like this. Opaque goggles or sunglasses aren't uncommon, but everyone else who wears normal glasses has clearly visible eyes. | |

Kenji's glasses in Katawa Shoujo. Except for one scene, he's never seen without them. Hisao estimates the lenses are about an inch thick. | |
