Interesting. I'm the opposite, my passport photo doesn't have glasses, but I've never taken them off for the gates and I don't think they tell you to, and I've never had a gate fail.

They do tell you to take them off. But they might be targeting shades more than regular glasses.

Oh! How weird. Maybe I'm getting the UK gates mixed up with Australia where I'm often travelling to. I do remember looking for a sign and being surprised that I didn't need to take them off recently, but it might have been outbound.
