Having a external camera attached to your glasses would be fine if you wanted a live picture of you holding your iPhone, you couldn't look at the subject or object and at your iPhone at the same time.

Maybe just have one attached to the phone, but that would be a bit pointless as the iphone already has a usable camera, Apple should just let developers have access to the API.
