Harry Potter and his glasses

Sign in to disble this ad
This is a serious flaw in the books and movies. Why is Harry Potter wearing glasses, when he is a wizard? It's just silly, he could and should have corrected his eyesight.

Maybe his poor eyesight resulted from being shot in the face by the killing curse. In which case, no magic could fix that.

Harry is actually the next great Dark wizard. His glasses are a Horcrux.

This is the second flaw. The first? Why, assuming he's a wizard, is the cute chick wearing clothes?
