It may seem a short-sighted solution but blurred glasses are their latest tool available to ultra-orthodox Jewish men who want to stop eyeing up beautiful women.
The specially-designed out of focus glasses are proving popular among so-called ‘Charedi’ men in religious areas of Israel.
The anti-ogle goggles can be snapped up for just a few pounds and feature a sticker on the lens which makes them poorly focused when looking anywhere except for the space in the immediate vicinity.

The glasses provide clear vision for a few metres, but anything anything further away becoms blurry.
The glasses are on sale in religious neighbourhoods of Jerusalem such as Mea Shearim.
According to some reports, the glasses are just one item in a range ‘modesty’ accessories on offer in the area.
