My favorite part is when he takes off his glasses to look at nails. He
takes off his glasses to see better. I had wondered if they were fake.

 It depends on your vision.
 I'm short-sighted, so need glasses to see distance, but when working on something small close-up, it is better to take my glasses off. This can become more of a problem as people age, which is why they sometimes get bifocals - the upper half of the lenses for long distance and the lower half of the lenses for close work / reading.

I'm the same way. I haven't worn my glasses for reading for decades. Whe I wear the contacts, I use cheap readers to read labels in the store, etc.

 On the UK TV show "The Repair Shop", the clock repair expert Steve Fletcher often wears two or even three pairs of glasses at the same time when working on the small items. One of the other experts has also used the same idea a couple of times.
