I was trying to use glasses as a metaphor for consciousness or awareness.

This person is suppose to not have a grip on reality, the right eye that's "far less" is suppose to signify a lack of morals, the left eye that's misshapen is suppose to represent the action of immorality.

Sort of like that person that thinks someone loves them, even though they find another person's undergarments in the bed or a person that convinces themselves that a 9-5 job answering the phone is fulfilling...simply because it pays the bills.

I was trying to tie in the whole unreliable narrator, symbolism type thing, ok, but apparently I failed...

If you have to explain it, I guess it needs a rewrite.
