Roy Orbison was NOT blind, was NOT crosseyed and was NOT an albino. Lets get that out of the way. He did wear glasses because he had trouble seeing. Before a show he forgot his prescription (clear) glasses and the only prescription pair he had were sunglasses. Fabulous pictures were taken and he stayed with it. He also decided he liked them better.
