They're not coke-bottle glasses he's wearing, they're paperweights in a frame. Glasses in drawn and animated media usually come in four forms -- there are tiny little things that don't get in the way (see Cool Mask), so-clear-they're-almost-not-there spectacles worn by pretty girls (a.k.a. Meganekko) and handsome boys, lenses meant to hide the character's eyes from anyone who wants to get a glimpse at their soul (Scary Shiny Glasses), and then there are Opaque Nerd Glasses. This trope is found more often in comedy than in drama. Subtrope of Nerd Glasses. Contrast with Meganekko.
