Can those 'Nerd Glasses' everyone wears actually be worn as prescription glasses?

Can I pop the lenses of these glasses and get prescription lenses to fit into them? I really like the style of it and change my real glasses.

You certainly can. In fact, my first pair of glasses (it was 1973, and I was in High School) looked exactly like those.
I hated them.
