Muktzeh in Glasses

Question

If glasses have lenses installed in reverse (right lens on the left side and vice versa) and this is discovered on Shabbat, are they considered muktzeh? If so, what type of muktzeh?

Answer

Shalom u'vracha 

Since the glasses are fit for use [as they were used until this was discovered], they are not considered muktzeh.
