Whether you’re nearsighted or farsighted, I can pretty much assure you that these “eyeglasses” won’t give you 20/20 vision; but they will help your computer remember things a little bit better.

These whimsical 2GB Four Eyes USB flash memory drives were designed by Willie Tsang for IMM Living. The chunky black frames don’t contain any lenses, so they won’t help your eyesight – and since they have no hinged arms to go over your ears, don’t count on wearing them on your head unless you plan on duct taping them to your forehead. On the other hand, they are flat enough to use as a bookmark, which you probably couldn’t do with your regular glasses.

No word on where you can buy these yet, but they’re going to sell for $29 (USD) when they hit stores this Spring.
