I don't think I ever saw Aunt Bee wear reading glasses either - even when she and Clara were repairing mildewed band uniforms.
Maybe she just stopped wearing them around other people. As wonderful as she was, she did have a little vanity in her. " I don't need to pay Doc Andrews $5 to tell me how old I am - and I'm not that old!" (There was also the blond wig episode.) Hey- how many people in Mayberry wore glasses? I remember the Silby's that were being evicted except Sam ( is that his name? ) couldn't read the eviction notice because Andy lifted his glasses as a strategy to buy time to help the Silby's.
