Glasses Icon
glasses · Essentional Ui · 6 styles
Glasses is one of the glyphs Solar Icons ships inside its Essentional Ui set. It is one of 139 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Glasses lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "glasses", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
Read literally, the shape signals the idea of the primitives every interface needs — add, close, check, menu, info, danger. That places Glasses in the Essentional Ui family, which covers the primitives every interface needs — add, close, check, menu, info, danger and turns up in buttons, dialogs, toasts, form validation and empty states. Teams building literally every application, which is why it is the largest set here reach for this set first. Use Glasses where the label alone would be ambiguous — an icon-only button, a dense table row, a mobile tab bar — and keep an accessible name on the control, because the SVG itself is decorative.
Glasses in 6 styles
Glasses has been redrawn for 6 style variants: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Bold gives you solid filled shapes that hold their weight at 16px and read clearly against coloured backgrounds. Bold Duotone gives you a filled body with a second, lower-opacity layer that adds depth without a second colour token. Linear gives you even 1.5px strokes, the neutral default for dense interfaces and toolbars. A common pairing is Bold for the selected state and Line Duotone for the rest, so the active item reads without a colour change.

Registration is explicit, which is what keeps the bundle small. Import GlassesBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/essentional-ui" entry point, hand it to provideSolarIcons in your application config or in a route-level providers array, and render it with the solar-icon component. All 6 exports for glasses live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

In other corners of the library, Gas Station, Palette, Smart Vacuum Cleaner, Video Library, Cart4 and Gallery Minimalistic cover neighbouring ideas; the name "glasses" is 7 characters long and splits into 1 token, which is how the explorer's search matches it.
Glasses icon FAQ
- How do I use the glasses icon in Angular?
- Import GlassesBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/essentional-ui", register it with provideSolarIcons(GlassesBold) and render <solar-icon name="glasses" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Glasses support?
- 6 of them: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Each is a separate export, so you only ship the ones you import.
- Can I change the size and colour of glasses?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Glasses inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
