James' "Glasses" is about a beautiful young woman, Flora Saunt, so vain that she refuses to wear glasses. Failing to conceal her deteriorating eyesight from her aristocratic suitor, she is forced to marry a rejected lover who, himself blinded by love, has fallen for her "at first sight". By marrying her he allows her, now totally blind, to continue to pose without the disfigurement of glasses.
