Word: beglassed Part of Speech: adj Etymology: From be- + glass + -ed. 1. Synonym of bespectacled. Labels: not-comparable Example: If the child of five needs glasses to prevent injury to the eyes and to the health, the chances are that at a later age the double injury will not be avoided except by glasses.

Example: Why do people who wear eyeglasses or spectacles insist upon keeping them on when photographed? That simple detail will ruin the otherwise most successful portrait ever taken. And yet the beglassed one clings to her glasses nine times out of ten. 2. Covered with glass, such as a building with a façade comprised primarily of windows.
