Not to defend the glasses because they're obviously a problem, but that's more an individual doctor issue than a problem with the product.
These glasses serve no function other than to deceive if the little light has been shut off.
The only way meta gets away with making these is the little light being on.
Ive seen countless videos of men trying to get it deactivated and so very few of it being refused, so yes they need to be banned or make it a severe crime to deactivate the little light.
Or, and hear me out, ban these glasses with the exception of some very specific use cases, like for blind people where I see a legit use case.
