"These are called round glasses or round frames or Lloyd frames. We'll just call them round because who knows who Lloyd is! I don't know who he is. I've never met him. If you meet him say "Thanks for the round glasses style"! They are typically going to have plastic frames. I guess. I really don't know of any other frames they can have but they're definitely round. They're like an owl. That's a good reference. And the best way to draw them, it's very easy, drawing glasses actually takes like no time especially if you have a face that's not facing sideways. If you're drawing and your face doesn't face sideways or three-quarters or anything and your face is head-on, that means it's going to be basically symmetrical on both sides minus, of course like whatever hairstyle you have or whatever shading. But the basic frame of reference is going to be that halves are equal. So you just draw in one half of it then you trace your own drawing on the other side. And then you flip it open, even it out and you'll have your perfect pair of symmetrical glasses for a symmetrical face."
