Fushimi's glasses break and he has to wear contacts until he can get new ones in his prescription. He's had even more admirers pop up since he lost his glasses, but he's either oblivious/actively ignores them. He hates not having his glasses, he's had to go back to leaving his hair unstyled and straight to avoid looking exactly like his dad. He's grumpy about it the whole time and the only thing that makes it better is going home and having Misaki comfort (spoil) him.
Imagine everyone trying to convince him to stick with the contacts too and only Yata kinda gets why Fushimi's so adamant about having his glasses back because he knows how Fushimi feels about looking so much like his dad. Like say his glasses get broken on some mission, he's chasing a Strain and he gets knocked around a bit, his glasses fall off and end up being crunched by the Strain before Fushimi manages to take the Strain down. Seeing as the glasses were totally wrecked it's going to take a little time to get him a new pair, like maybe he has a particularly difficult prescription and the frames have to be sent away for completely new lens fitting and all that.
In the meantime though he does get a pair of functional contacts, not as good as his glasses but he can see and do his work and that should be enough. Fushimi's not happy about the contacts but without them he can't even read his computer screen and he doesn't have any spare glasses (I imagine Munakata suggesting he get several pairs for emergencies such as Munakata has, showing Fushimi an entire desk drawer filled with identical glasses). The first time Fushimi puts the contacts in it's early in the morning and he's standing in the bathroom, running a hand through his hair to style it and suddenly looking up to see that man's face in the mirror. For a moment Fushimi's hands twitch reflexively for knives and then he realizes that this is his reflection, giving a bitter laugh as he stares at the face that really is too much like that person for his taste. He runs a hand through his hair again, letting it lay more like when he was a kid and in Homra, and goes to get dressed.
All day at work people comment on his appearance, telling him he looks good and wondering about his sudden change of hairstyle to go with the lack of glasses. Of course everyone means well, noticing how you can see his eyes so much better now and a few more people end up with unexpected crushes, and no one really knows why Fushimi's in such a sour mood about the whole thing. He keeps himself from snapping too much at people, Fushimi's been trying to get better at this whole 'comrades' thing and he knows that none of these people even know who Fushimi Niki is, but still every time someone tells him he looks handsome without his glasses or asks about his hair he thinks about that face in the mirror and his teeth clench.
By the end of the day he's just worn out from the whole thing, walking back into the apartment with an even more sour look than usual on his face. Yata's sitting on the couch and greets him and imagine Fushimi just walking over and flopping right on the couch, arms going around Yata and burying his face in Yata's shirt. Yata's surprised by the sudden affection and asks if Fushimi had a rough day, Fushimi grumbles that his eyes hurt and he wants his glasses back. Yata wonders if the Blues were surprised to see Fushimi without glasses and Fushimi doesn't answer at first, Yata puts a hand on his head and asks if anyone said something bad and does he need to go punch people. Fushimi mumbles out a '...they said I looked good' and Yata's all okay that's fine though. Fushimi disagrees, still hesitant before mumbling something Yata can't quite hear into his shirt. He does catch the words 'that guy' and realizes exactly what the problem is. Yata pets Fushimi's head and says he thinks Fushimi looks better with the nerd glasses anyway, they suit him. Fushimi huffs slightly about the 'nerd' part and says his head hurts, Yata laughs quietly and says if Fushimi wants to stay in his lap for a while and rest then that's okay, softly petting his hair and just letting Fushimi be spoiled for a bit.
