It relates to the Anais Nin saying "We do not see the world as it is, we see it as we are."

It basically means that your view of the world is entirely colored by the glasses that you wear and allow no room for the view of others.

Benny Slightman's father was a traitor to his village so that he son could have glasses. The father feels that this is a noble cause while every one views it as cowardly. Any further observations he makes about the world are suspect because of this belief that he knows to be wrong, but believes anyway because it helps him to sleep at night.
