Happy Glasses - You'll Look Ridiculous, But You Won't Be Depressed
Tue, October 13, 2009 
THE FUTURE IS HERE! THE FUTURE IS HERE! (You're supposed to imagine us riding speeder bikes, ringing clapperless future bells as town criers when you read that.) These ridiculous looking glasses were designed by the physics department at Liege University to combat seasonal depression (SAD), which is brought on by a lack of light. The glasses are made by the company Solvital, which very much sounds like a joke name from an SNL skit. After visiting their site, we decided they are in no way a joke. The site's top banner has side boob for shit's sake, so they're totally legit.
Are we the only ones that think shining lights directly into your retinas at a close distance for extended periods may be a bad idea?
