Interestingly, spectacles do not represent a development in optics as much they do an advance in packaging.

Light Rays
... Light from the sky is gradually refracted more towards the horizontal as the air near the ground has a lower refractive index (optically less dense). Total internal reflection takes place when it meets a layer of air at an angle greater than the critical angle. The image of the sky is then formed on ...
