History Main / OpaqueLenses

* ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'': Yuki Nagato has glasses that do this... at least, [[spoiler:until she breaks them defending Kyon from Asakura Ryoko, and he tells her he "doesn't really have a glasses fetish". Thus, she decides to stop wearing them. Haruhi and the {{Muggles}} in the story assume she started wearing contact lenses]].

%%* Eggman/Robotnik has these in ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog''
* Pandoria has these in VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2 [[spoiler: until some of her backstory is revealed, and they become transparent [[RuleOfSymbolism to symbolize your new insight on the kind of person she is.]]]]

* ''Webcomic/{{Rain|2010}}: Rain's abusive father Marcus is drawn with glasses that obscure his eyes in order to emphasize just how much of a monster he is.

* Jason Fox and any other nerdy character in ''ComicStrip/FoxTrot'' (e.g., Morton Goldthwait). Non-nerds who wear glasses, such as Jason's grandmother, don't have opaque lenses.
* ComicStrip/{{Dilbert}}, his mother, Dogbert, and Wally.
* ComicStrip/{{Agnes}} and her grandmother.
* Any glasses wearers in ''ComicStrip/TheFarSide'' and many an imitator thereof.
* Milo Bloom and most other glasses wearers in ''ComicStrip/BloomCounty''.
* Lance Fusco in ''The Fusco Brothers''. Lampshaded: "How can you tell ''what'' kind of eyes I'm making, Gloria? I've got my opaque one-way Lance Fusco glasses on."

* Boss from ''VideoGame/{{Catherine}}''.
* Averted in ''VideoGame/MassEffect1''. Most early promotional materials and demo videos showed that whenever Shepard and his/her squadmates have their helmets on the visors were reflective and hid the top half their faces. In the final game, the visors are generally clear with the exception of some areas where lighting is poor and their faces can clearly be seen.

* Eggman\Robotnik has these in ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog''

* ''WebComic/LottaSvardWomenOfWar'': Tyyne's father is always seen with rectangular glasses with solid white lenses, which both complements his daughter's BlindingBangs and fits his slightly impersonal attitude toward the rest of the characters (including his own family).

* [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] by [[spoiler:Koyo Aoba]] in ''Manga/Reborn2004''. Everyone can see his eyes through his glasses perfectly fine, but they're made opaque on the inside in order to [[spoiler:[[PowerIncontinence block]] Koyo's [[DeadlyGaze Killer Point Vision]]]].

* In ''ComicBook/TheSandman'' [[SerialKiller The Corinthian's]] shades might be these on occasion, depending on the artist. They're either SunglassesAtNight drawn in fairly realistic style to hide his teeth-eyes, or stylised black circles on his face that hide his eyes entirely.
* The original Ventriloquist in ''Franchise/{{Batman}}'' comics, ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheBatman''. The intent combined with his bald head and inexpressive mouth seems to be to make him as much TheBlank as possible without it looking odd; ''[[DemonicDummy Scarface]]'' is the character who emotes.
* Comicbook/SpiderMan installed these into his mask specifically because it unnerves people.
* The "lenses" of Comicbook/{{Daredevil}}'s mask are just for show. Since he's blind any eyeholes would be pointless anyway.
* Kevin from ''Comicbook/SinCity'' is drawn with these pretty much all the time. The solid white lenses are an iconic part of his character.
* Phil Coulson, in ''ComicBook/UltimateFF'' (set in the ComicBook/UltimateMarvel continuity, not the main one). He is never seen without them.

* In ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', there are the Wonderbolts.
* Professor Frink in ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' and Professor Hubert Farnsworth in ''{{WesternAnimation/Futurama}}''.

%%* Tedd from ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive.''

* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', unlike every other character who wears glasses, Mr. Verres' eyes have never been seen since he's always shown wearing these type of glasses and unlike his son's, the reason for the opaqueness of Mr. Verres' glasses have never been explained.

* In the ''VideoGame/{{Tamagotchi}}'' series, Professor Banzo, the scientist who discovered Tamagotchis, wears a pair of glasses with light blue lenses that have no eyes visible in them.
