No more shall lefties wanting Google Glass toil under the oppression of right-handed overlords. Not if Google’s newly granted design patent is an indication, at any rate. The filing simply puts the eyepiece on the other side for those who are either naturally left-inclined or just that much opposed to the optical status quo. There’s no guarantee Google will be so accommodating when Glass reaches the general public, although we’re hopeful: when early adopters are already paying a small fortune to leap in, it wouldn’t hurt to produce a batch for left eye use and give the more committed southpaws among us the freedom they’ve craved since Google I/O.
