Scarecrow is always designed to wear glasses, but have we considered Jonathan's eyesight worsening over the years?
He's always needed them since he was a boy, but after years of dealing with toxic chemicals and beatings from Batman, he's neglected his eye care, never changing his glasses to more suitable ones.
Slowly, he realises he's waking up, and his vision isn't as good as it was the day before; it's almost like a dimmer switch turning it down ever so slightly every day.
He would also rather die than see the Arkham doctors, so he keeps the information to himself until he can escape and kidnap an optometrist he can scare into diagnosing him.
