Seems like he only needs them for reading and close work. Might have damaged his eyes on an adventure .

True, but he does wear a crazy pair while disguised as Fritz Diefenbaker in "Attack of the Hawkmen".Raiders112390 said:
That's a good question. From all the things we've seen him acheive WITHOUT glasses shows that they're probably fake, costume dressing to make Indy look studious and reinforce his character's dual exterior.Raiders112390 said:
Having said that, he uses them to look at Donovan's grail tablet, the Pankot dinner and his home-research-short-stop in "Skull" which makes me think Indy is far-sighted and needs glasses to see things up-close.
Just noticed your previous post and we've both reached the same conclusion.Montana Smith said:Seems like he only needs them for reading and close work. Might have damaged his eyes on an adventure .

Perhaps wearing those glasses in the YIJC is what damaged his eyes. I've heard if you wear glasses and you don't actually need them it can damage your eyes.
And he wears them when getting the Headpiece of the Staff of Ra translated with Sallah. Since he's with Sallah and on an adventure, there's no reason for him to wear fake glasses to look studious.

For some unnamed reason, probably style (even though Indy kept his class room in the 1930's style AND that he wasn't able to lose them throughout ALL THREE classic films AND-- GHAA! never mind...), Indy changes his glasses for KotCS and I was wondering if anyone had any leads on those?
