I am also dealing with this issue. Tried turning on and off laptop mode, problem still persists. When laptop mode is off, the glasses on the Sim itself will appear as they should, but the portrait in the corner still has the glitch.

All glasses in my game appear blacked out. (even glasses worn by townies) The frames will appear as normal but the see through bit is black. I've repaired the game and turned off laptop mode. (I play on high graphics settings with laptop mode usually.) Turning off laptop mode only effected the in-game model, that now has have see through glasses but the moodlet icon at the bottom still has the glasses blacked out. This has to be a bug that I can't fix. Any help would be appreciated.
