== Tabletop Games ==
* ''[[Dungeons and Dragons|Dungeons & Dragons]]'' has a spell called ''True Seeing'' which allows you to see through any illusions or glamors placed on an object. In theory, it is possible to enchant any object with ''True Seeing'', including glasses, other clothing items, and even light sources (sort of like an anti-illusion field).
* The ''[[Call of Cthulhu (tabletop game)]]'' adventure "The Fungi From Yuggoth". It has a pair of spectacles that allowed the wearer to see into another dimension (with the usual impossible angles and bizarre perspectives). Each time you uses them, there is a chance you could see a monster that could attack and kill you if you didn't take them off in time.
** Which is basically a man-portable version of the Tillinghast Resonator from [[H.P. Lovecraft]]'s story "[[From Beyond]]".
* ''[[GURPS]]'': Artifacts has "The Mask of Maaukepu". If you look at someone while wearing it there's a small chance you'll see the worst thing that person has ever done.
