Often described as potages, French onion soup is an example of a modern soup that retains this bread sop. The reason for this is because the cost of a set of lenses is less than the cost of a separate pair of glasses and carrying extra lenses is less bulky than carrying multiple pairs of glasses. The word soup originates from the Teutonic word suppa, which refers to a Medieval dish consisting of a thick stew poured on slices of bread, called sop, used to soak up the liquid. The purpose of this is to allow the wearer to easily change lenses when light conditions or activities change. In late Medieval and Early Modern Europe, the peasant diet consisted almost solely of potage. Lenses can be easily removed and swapped with a different lens, usually a different colored lens.

"Potage" (connoting the contents of the cooking pot) denotes a soup where meat and vegetables are boiled together with water until it forms a thick soup (generally fairly easy on the meat). Some sports oriented sunglasses have interchangeable lens options. . There are two styles of frameless glasses, those that have a piece of frame material connecting the two lenses together, and those that are a single lens with ear stems on each side. Other ingredients commonly used to thicken soups and broths include rice, flour, and grain. Frameless glasses have no frame around the lenses and the ear stems are attached directly to the lenses. Thick soups are classified depending upon the type of thickening agent used: purées are vegetable soups thickened with starch; bisques are made from puréed shellfish thickened with cream; cream soups are thickened with béchamel sauce; and veloutés are thickened with eggs, butter and cream. Half frames go around only half the lens, typically the frames attach to the top of the lenses and on the side near the top.

The established French classifications of clear soups are bouillon and consommé. Full frame glasses have the frame go all around the lenses. Traditionally, soups are classified into two broad groups: clear soups and thick soups. There are three common styles: full frame, half frame, and frameless. Stews are cooked in covered containers for longer periods of time, at a gentle boil with less water and at a lower heat. Frames can be made to hold the lenses in several different ways. The language may have shifted over time, but the modern definitions of soup and stew were established in the 18th century: soups usually are more liquid; stews are thicker, containing more solid ingredients. Oakley, for example, has straight ear pieces on all their glasses.

Over the centuries, the terms gruel and potage have become separated from broth and stock (and their refinement, consommé). The end of the ear pieces are usually curved so that they wrap around the ear; however, some models have straight ear pieces. Boiling was not a common cooking technique until the invention of waterproof containers about 5,000 years ago, so soups presumably were little-known before that time.
