Spectacles

Spectacles comprising:

• a lens comprising a first portion and a second portion disposed opposite each other and a first cavity between the first portion and the second portion;
• a frame surrounding the lens and supporting the lens, the frame having a second cavity defined by an inner surface of the frame, wherein the second cavity is in communication with the first cavity to form an interior space;
• a colored liquid disposed in the interior space;
• a first hydrophobic dielectric film disposed on the inner surface of the frame;
• a first electrode disposed between the inner surface of the frame and the first hydrophobic dielectric film;
• a second electrode disposed in the interior space formed by the first cavity of the lens and the second cavity of the frame and in contact with the colored liquid;
• and
• a control device coupled to the first electrode and the second electrode for controlling movement of the colored liquid, wherein the control device comprises a power switch and a mode selection switch located at one of the frame and an arm of the spectacles, and a photosensitive device located on the frame, wherein either:
• (i) the control device further comprises a first resistor, a variable resistor, and a power source, wherein the mode selection switch comprises a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal, wherein the first terminal of the mode selection switch is capable of being selectively coupled to one of the second terminal of the mode selection switch and the third terminal of mode selection switch, wherein the second terminal of the mode selection switch is coupled to a first terminal of the photosensitive device, wherein a second terminal of the photosensitive device is coupled to a first terminal of the power switch, wherein a second terminal of the power switch is coupled to a first terminal of the first resistor, wherein a second terminal of the first resistor is coupled to a first terminal of the power source, wherein a second terminal of the power source is coupled to the first terminal of the mode selection switch, wherein the third terminal of the mode selection switch is coupled to a first terminal of the variable resistor, wherein a second terminal of the variable resistor is coupled to the first terminal of the power switch, and wherein one of the first electrode and the second electrode is coupled to the first terminal of the power switch, and the other of the first electrode and the second electrode is coupled to the second terminal of the power source,
