Wanted: Neato eyeglasses

I feel kind of odd asking this considering the large amount of product placement in "The Island", but does anyone know where I could get a pair of the glasses Bean uses in this film? I've been looking for a set of rimless frames that narrow for ages, and have yet to find any. My eyes are like narrow slits, so normal glasses look silly on me.

Guess I'll have to repost this once the movie hits wide release, but I'll give it a shot for now.

For reference, I'm looking for a narrower version (about half) of this:

I know what film you're referring to (since I saw your post in the THE ISLAND thread), but you might want to clarify for the others that haven't.

well if you know the make of the glasses any opticianry can order them for you. Not knowing what they look like, I can't help you.. and your link doesnt work.

my wife is an optician. She could possibly tell you, but again, your link doesnt work.

Here's a still from the film with the glasses in question:

Try your local optometrist or ophthalmologist. Rimless are relatively popular and available at most large frame shops. I think Silhouette, Airless by Marchon, and Adidas have some on the 'net; other major brands probably have a pair or two rimless styles as well.
