* One of the tests required to obtain a driver's license in practically every jurisdiction is a vision test. If you require the use of glasses or contact lenses to pass the test, your license will make note of that fact (usually with a code appended to your license number, or a printed endorsement on the license stating "Corrective Lens" or something similar). For a driver with vision restrictions, driving without correction constitutes a moving violation and will get you ticketed.

* Christopher Lambert has Myopia and is almost entirely blind without his Glasses. Since he cannot wear contacts, he is often forced to act while unable to see anything clearly (Making the fact that almost all his roles require fighting or some form of strenuous physical activity impressive).

* Possibly led to the death of FBI Agent Ben Grogan in the infamous 1986 FBI Miami shootout. Gorgon was the best trained and experienced with firearms among present officers, but lost his glasses in a crash at the start of the confrontation. How bad Grogan's vision actually was is disputed, one of the few points of debate in the well documented case, but losing his glasses didn't help.
