Joe Biden's bringing sexy back to the bespectacled.

 

And … bloodshot "zombie eyes?"

The vice president's rimless glasses, artfully dangled and appearing at times to match Biden's lilac-colored ties, went viral on Twitter and other social networks during tonight's State of the Union address.

"Joe Biden wears glasses? How did I not know this?" The Fix tweeted.

 

"Seems cruel of Biden to match lavender glasses and a tie with no promise of performing 'Bennie and the Jets,'" wrote Twitter user Louis Virtel.

 

His bloodshot left eye, which some took to calling a "zombie eye," also freaked out more than a few viewers.

"Sweet Baby Moses, Joe Biden's eye is terrifying," tweeted Jonathan Waldrop.

 

"What's up with Joe Biden's eye? I can't focus on the speech with Joe sitting back there looking like he's missing an eyeball," wrote John from CT.

 

Turns out, Biden scratched his left eye with a contact lens earlier this week, The Huffington Post reported.

 

Here's a popular gif of Biden's "tinted glasses."

 

The Veep also made the popular new Vine app, which poked fun at his fidgeting. [View the story "State of the Union 2013" on Storify]
