The world is the way it is. Or so they would have you believe but there is something more, something underneath the thin skin of this world, something which can't be normally seen by human eyes. How can you see it then? Why, with special glasses, of course. These can come in a variety of forms: regular sunglasses, X-ray specs ordered from the back of a comic book, hagstones, or special amulets. You can see By the Eyes of the Blind, those Invisible to Normals, and the Masquerade. You've broken the Weirdness Censor on your eyes. Now, the only question is: Is this a good thing? Despite what the title may imply, this has nothing to do with X-Ray Vision. Compare with the Goggles Do Something Unusual. A Sub-Trope of True Sight and See the Invisible. |

Batman: Arkham Asylum has Detective Mode, which has functions including X-ray, forensic tracker, vital sign monitoring, weapon detection, and point-of-interest detection. This is treated as a combination of a scanner in Batman's cowl, and "seeing the world through Batman's eyes". The Joker, in the PS3-exclusive content, has X-ray specs which have that function and nothing else. | |

Franken Fran took this trope and applied it to a pair of eyes that the title character created and implanted in a painter. The eyes allowed him to see light and color spectra that normal humans couldn't see. Unfortunately, this caused him to see all sorts of Eldritch Abomination that are usually invisible to humans. He ends up falling in love with one of them. It is not insignificant to note that this is one of the happier endings in the series. | |

The Whisperer in Darkness. The protagonist is unimpressed when a man turns up with a photograph of a creature his father supposedly shot, yet there's nothing to be seen because they're allegedly made up of 'a different kind of matter'. Until one of the scientists uses a parallax viewer, revealing the creepy sight of a Starfish Alien Mi-Go. | |

As in the Live-Action Film section above, James Bond uses these: In Agent Under Fire, they allow him to see hidden panels. In NightFire, they allow him to see enemies behind walls (their skeletons register as pink blobs against a blue background). Bond's erstwhile counterpart, GoldenEye, has MRI Vision thanks to his bionic eye-implant. |

In the pilot episode of Victor and Valentino, the duo are trapped in a maze, but come across Achi, who is running a stand of useful items, but the catch is that they can only take one. Victor impulsively picks the only useless item there, the luchador mask. However, when the duo return to the world of the living, they discover that the luchador mask allows them to see the undead spirits (and discover that their grandmother is... otherworldy) in their otherwise desolated town. | |

A chapter of Ayakashi Triangle (by the same artist as the To Love Ru example) has Matsuri possessed by an iyo embodying "perverted desires" that made him see through the clothing of anyone he knew (in this case, Suzu and Mei). Mei threw it into him for fun, not having any idea what it did. Matsuri is able to remove it from him, but not before getting a very intimate view of Suzu's crotch. | |

In Persona 4, the protagonist and his nakama are able to see inside of the T.V. world and fight the shadows there thanks to special glasses (or, at least the lenses are special) that are made by the resident mascot character, Teddie, because "he gets bored when left alone." Bonus points for, during the game's true ending, having the protagonist discard his glasses — no longer needing them to see the Truth — and use his Eleventh Hour Super Power against the Mistress of all of the fog and mystery, Izanami. | |

Dungeons & Dragons has a spell called True Seeing which allows you to see through any illusions or glamors placed on an object.

Call of Cthulhu campaign The Fungi From Yuggoth. It has a pair of spectacles that allowed the wearer to see into another dimension (with the usual impossible angles and bizarre perspectives). Each time you use them, there is a chance you could see a monster that could attack and kill you if you don't take them off in time. Which is basically a man-portable version of the Tillinghast Resonator from H. P. Lovecraft's story "From Beyond". |

In the Alcatraz Series, many of the Lenses work like this, from the Oculator's Lenses that allow them to detect powerful magic and other Oculators, the Tracker's Lenses which let them track people by magic footprints, to the Translator's Lenses. | |

It's suggested in Hogfather that the reason Mr Teatime can see things that are Invisible to Normals may be that his glass eye is made out of a scrying crystal. | |

Pokémon: The Silph Scope in Pokémon Red and Blue allowed the player to see the real form of wild ghost Pokemon. The Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire games have the Devon Scope, which allows the player to see invisible Pokemon. Though it only needs to be used once to progress, there are several other hidden Pokemon in the routes near Fortree and Lilycove. In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon spinoffs, Goggle Specs play a similar role to the Devon Scope, plus the ability to see traps. An eyepiece known as the Aura Reader exists in Pokémon XD; it allows the wearer to sense the dark aura of a Shadow Pokemon. It also serves as the restraining bolt, locking the Snag Machine's function as long as a Shadow Pokemon is not on the field. |

The movie They Live! is built around this trope: the main character played by Roddy Piper finds a box of sunglasses and when he puts one on, he can see the hidden aliens among them, as well as signs saying "Consume," "Marry and Reproduce," and money printed with "This is your God" on it. | |

Through the lens, a pacted host appears as their demon while an unpacted host appears with a pattern associated with their demon that connects to where their demon is. It also shows injuries, such as Odin's bodily scar. At one point, the lens get cracked, causing strange starry fluid to leak from them. Odin gets some in his eye, which reveals that the fluid is responsible for the supernatural nature of the lens. | |

"Mad" Larkin's scope in the Warhammer 40,000 novel series Gaunt's Ghosts explicitly functions this way on at least one occasion (seeing through a psychic illusion caused by some Eldar in Ghostmaker) and in a less literal sense in general - Larkin is somewhat unhinged, and he mentions earlier in the book that he sees things clearly only when he's looking through his scope. Given how the 40k universe works, it's likely that it was because of his madness and unwavering faith in his scope that he could see the through the illusion. | |

Doctor Who: In the Two-Part Episode "Army of Ghosts"/"Doomsday", the Doctor wears a pair of old-fashioned red/green 3-D glasses designed to see the residual stuff from the void between universes. In a pre-movie introduction to the 3D "The Day of the Doctor", he tells the audience to test their 3D glasses by closing one eye and looking at the person next to them. "If one of the spectacles has turned black, then that person is a Zygon and is going to eat you sometime during the movie. Please, don't panic. It will only disturb everyone else and there's really nothing we can do to save you." |

In The Bartimaeus Trilogy, magicians possess magical glasses which allow them to see into the second and third planes. Djinn and other magical creatures can be invisible/disguised in this plane, and the glasses enable a human to see them in a true(r) form. Some of the citizens rules by magicians develop the ability to see the djinnis in a similar manner without such contacts, or see the aura of magical creatures, which becomes a rather important plot point. |

Metroid: Super Metroid: Despite being called the "X-Ray Scope", when Samus uses it, invisible objects appear, objects that aren't really there disappear, objects that require a specific weapon to destroy (Normal Bomb, Super Missile, Power Bomb, or Speed Booster) show an icon of that weapon, and Pit Blocks (the ones that crumble when you try to walk on them) are revealed. Metroid Prime: The X-Ray Visor lets Samus see through fake and destructible objects, and reveals invisible things. It is the only way to keep Chozo Ghosts visible. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes: The Dark Visor allows Samus to see objects and elements that are either invisible, or cross-dimensional (between the Light and Dark Worlds). Metroid Prime 3: Corruption: The X-Ray Visor returns, now allowing Samus to see the symbols and characters of special keyboards she must use to write codes in Pirate Homeworld. She can also use the visor to see through Phazite plates and activate certain gizmos when using the Nova Beam. |

In Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Johan Krauss obtains eyewear that enables the BPRD team to see through magical beings' glamour. Including that of Hellboy himself. Even though he isn't really using glamour, as he physically broke his horns off and then filed them down. | |
