It is a societal issue that makes it a perception issue. Society is stupid.

I honestly do not know what society has to do with this at all. You are an official that expected to see, run and hold your composer at all times. When you miss something wearing glasses just adds to the scrutiny even if it is not a real issue. It is really not that big of a deal, but you do not see officials on TV wearing glasses and it is not because society says so. It is because they want to take away one other thing to call into question their competence or ability. It would be no different if you had a college professor teaching classes without a college degree. It kind of calls into question your ability to do the job right or wrong.
