As far as I know, simple possession of thin lenses is not a crime anywhere in the U.S. Of course, who's to say what they've made illegal in Texas! ;)
I agree possesion is not illegal it's the liability that comes with it for the manufacturer, dispensor and wearer. In escence it's not illegal until someone squacks :)

As to what's illegal in Texas...Well. You can legally carry a gun (with the proper credentials mind you) but you can't carry a pair of linemans pliers in your back pocket. Public intoxication is illegal but there are bars on just about every street corner (Hmmm. Are those people in the bar having Bible Study groups? ;) It is illegal to take a loaded gun of any kind into a bar but you can give the drunks, throwing darts and pool cues :) You can buy a car, truck or motorcycle that will do 140 to 220 mph but you can only legally drive them at a top speed of 70 mph on highways designated for that speed, but then speed limits are everywhere in the states. Oh and you can carry a pocket knife with whatever length blade you can find but you can only carry a fixed blade 3 inches or shorter balde length and it cannot be double edged even if it is regulation blade length. Switchblades are illegal but you can carry an "assisted opening" folder. (for those that don't know what that is "assisted opening is a switchblade without an external switch. You manually open the blade a quarter of the way and it automatically opens the rest of the way.)

We Texans are both loveable and deadly. It's kind of cool really :)

Well take care,
