Are "lentes" not just ordinary glasses?

hayastan hayastan January 18, 2021 January 18, 2021 at 2:12:11 AM UTC link Permalink

We use it for both glasses and sunglasses

@hayastan: Do you use the word "gafas" where you live? And what do you say for contact lenses?

hayastan hayastan January 22, 2021 January 22, 2021 at 5:43:04 PM UTC link Permalink

No, we don´t use the word " gafas", but we know the meaning because many Spaniards came to Argentina in the 40´s and 50´s.In fact, my grandfather from my mather side came from Asturias. For contact lenses we say "lentes de contacto".
