mass, religious, first one that popped in my head was "bass" - both the fish and instrument. Would a pair of "glasses" work? I have never heard of anyone wearing glass to correct their vision. Of course, there's another one right there - "glass" as in a drinking glass. Others are puss, grass, bus, and mass.
