{{trope}}
'''Basic Trope''': Moneyed, sophisticated characters wear monocles.
* '''Straight''': Humphrey the [[Non -Idle Rich]] wears a monocle.
* '''Exaggerated''': Humphrey is so rich that he wears two monocles, one on each eye. His father, who is even more rich, wears ''three''.
* '''Justified''': Humphrey's monocle is actually a hi-tech appliance that is bulletproof, increases his visual acuity, [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|and has a wi-fi connection.]] It's so expensive that he is one of the few that can afford it.
** Alternatively: Humphrey needs vision correction in only one eye.
* '''Inverted''': Humphrey's poor servant Helena wears a monocle, and Humphrey does not.
