Are the lenses removable?

I don't know. They were given as a gag gift so I never looked to see if the lenses were removable.

5.5" thick? I think not. Maybe .5" thick. Correct?

Haha, the lenses are definitely not 5.5" thick and yes, .5" thick is probably accurate. I don't have any units with me right now to confirm, but I think when the listing was created, they meant "5.5” wide frame, thick nerd glasses."

Are they black or nude? Description says nude, but the image is of black glasses.

They're black. And impossible to wear. Painful on the eyes!
