OT: I followed the link to the rules given in the article. While there I ended up on the page that gives rules for passport photos, since I need to get around to getting one to renew my passport.
One of the rules (added in late 2016) is that you cannot wear glasses in the photo. However, if "[...] you cannot remove your glasses for medical reasons, please include a signed note from your doctor with application".
I've never heard of nor can can hypothesize a medical condition that would not let you remove your glasses while sitting or standing still for a photo. Anyone have some examples?
