  • Several celebrities have been spotted in glasses on and off the red carpet.
  • Many stars like Pedro Pascal and Jennifer Lopez opt for eyewear with large, thick frames.

While many vision-impaired celebrities seemingly opt for contacts or Lasik, some stylish stars are proving that glasses can be a trendy accessory.

Some celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Jay-Z opt for large frames with thick rims, while others like Prince William and Hugh Jackman wear thin, rectangular frames — although unsurprisingly, some stars, like Oprah Winfrey, get their unique eyewear from luxurious high-end boutiques.

Whether they're wearing them on the red carpet or while running errands, these celebrities look totally different with glasses.
