Eyewear is a broad term that refers to objects and accessories worn on or over the eyes for aesthetic purposes, environmental protection, and to enhance or improve visual acuity.
Contact lenses, sunglasses, and glasses—also referred to as eyeglasses or spectacles—are common types of eyewear. Eyewear can also contain more practical eye protection, such as goggles. In contrast, a type of eyewear called a blindfold is used to obstruct eyesight for a variety of reasons.
As with many other items that were created out of need, the fashion industry has reinvented glasses as a “accessory” and produced them in a plethora of designs and hues.
But it’s crucial to keep in mind that glasses are much more than just a basic piece of clothing. Numerous advantages of wearing glasses include vision correction and UV protection for the eyes.
The Russia Eyewear Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
New smart glasses introduced by Facebook and Ray-Ban were deemed a potential “spy gadget” by Russia’s FSB security service, a classification that might prevent their sale in Russia.
“Ray-Ban Stories,” which offers a wireless link to Facebook as well as voice-command photo and video capabilities, was introduced in September by the social networking behemoth and the venerable eyewear company.
As a privacy feature to warn those close that they might be being filmed, a white light at the front of the frames illuminates when a camera is being used. But the Federal Security Service of Russia (FSB) warned that the cutting-edge smart glasses may be used to “secretly gather information.”
The Russian market does not provide the glasses for sale. Russians who attempt to purchase them online could be prosecuted if they are officially outlawed.
Russians have been charged with crimes for purchasing publicly accessible consumer technology online in a number of high-profile cases in recent years.
Russian lawmakers drafted a number of exclusions to the list of prohibited equipment after the country’s Supreme Court ruled that persons cannot be punished for purchasing espionage tools if they were “mistaken about their genuine purpose.”
