    'No glasses' is more to do with a machine being able to recognise it's you rather than a human. Glasses hide too many biometric features.

    My pic would be no use then, without my glasses I wouldn't be able to see the camera to look straight at it. In fact I'd have trouble seeing the photographer, never mind the camera!
