意思
Putting on spectacles.
文化背景
Wearing glasses was traditionally a sign of high literacy. Even today, in rural areas, a child wearing glasses might be nicknamed 'Padhante' (studious one). The song 'Kalo Chasma' (though originally a Bollywood hit) is played at almost every Nepali wedding. It has made wearing sunglasses a mandatory part of festive dance culture. When performing religious rituals (Puja), some priests prefer people to remove sunglasses as it is seen as a barrier between the devotee and the divine. With the rise of the IT sector in Kathmandu, 'computer chasma' (blue light glasses) has become a common term among young professionals.
The 'Apply' Rule
Remember that 'lagaunu' is used for anything you 'apply' to your body: oil, cream, clothes, and glasses.
Don't 'Open' Glasses
Never say 'chasma kholnu'. It sounds like you are trying to dismantle the frames with a screwdriver.

Sunglasses vs. Glasses
If you just say 'chasma', people assume prescription. Always add 'kalo' (black) if you mean sunglasses.
Respectful Removal
If you meet someone very important or elderly while wearing sunglasses, it's a nice touch to take them off while saying Namaste.
