Wearing glasses is not associated with intelligence in all cultures. A study done in the Middle East uncovered that people there think glasses make us look less intelligent.
Volunteers had to rate how smart they thought people were based on their photo, some photos had people wearing glasses and some didn’t. Turns out that the people wearing glasses were seen as LESS intelligent which is opposite of every other study done.
All the other studies were done in western countries like the U.S. but this one was done specifically Jordan. One thing that has the same stats across the globe is that people who wear glasses are less attractive and appear less confident too.
