Marty Jr. and Marlene wearing video glasses during dinner. The orange illuminated word PHONE can be seen across the front of Marlene's glasses.

Video glasses were an input device, used in 2015, to view television programs without a large screen. Marty McFly, Jr. wore a pair of JVC video glasses while eating dinner with his family; it was while heading to his chair in front of the TV beforehand, he passed 1985 Jennifer and commented on her pants ("Hey, Mom, nice pants") — completely failing to notice that she was thirty years younger. While at dinner with his family, he complained that the glasses only allowed him to watch two channels. (When he was Marty Jr.'s age, Marty had to put two television sets next to each other in order to watch two shows at once, so Marty Jr. should have considered himself lucky!)

His sister, Marlene McFly, appeared to have a different set of glasses that apparently allowed her to talk on the video telephone, and which displayed the orange illuminated word PHONE across the front while she was doing this. The McFlys only had one phone line, so Marlene had to interrupt her conversation when Needles called.
