I wear glasses myself, so here's an ode to my fellow vision-impared brethren.

Yes, he's a worrywart with horrible allergies, and yes, he can be pretty damn awesome, even for a toddler. No one's a better or more loyal friend than Chuckie is.
He introduced me to the mad scientist stereotype, which will always be one of my favorites. (Did you notice how there's quite a few of them on this list?)
My nickname was Velma at one point as a kid. I wasn't as prone to losing my glasses as she was (thank goodness), but I always held her in high regard for being the sensible, logical mind behind Mystery Inc. Her crush on Shaggy in the most recent series (which will be missed) was cute-- when Shaggy wasn't ignoring her, that is. Poor Velma.
Think a glasses-and-bowtie-wearing linguist can't be badass? Guess again. Milo, despite his awkward, nervous personality, uses his brain to its full extent and finds the strength within himself to become a complete badass and save an ancient civilization in danger. Plus, his voice actor is Michael J. Fox, which is awesome in itself.
With her ever-present red hair and yellow-tinged glasses, Commissioner Jim Gordon's daughter has been a regular ally for Batman, not even letting being crippled by The Joker stop her from lending a hand, working for The Birds of Prey as Oracle, a master hacker.
Okay, he doesn't wear glasses, but his real identity, Daniel Dreiberg, does. Shy, socially-awkward ornithologist by day, badass superhero by night. Loyal friend, down-to-earth kinda guy. One of my favorite characters from one of my favorite comic series of all time.
Eccentric-but-brilliant. Also a Ghostbuster. Despite his tendency to make things worse, he's also usually the key element in righting them once more.
She's an adorable, apologetic child genius. With a jetpack. Who boxes her "superhero" grandfather for no reason. On television. I don't think there's really any character in the WarioWare series that I don't like...
She was the first Elite Four member with glasses, and hey, she's a master with Ice and Water-type Pokemon. A woman after my own heart.
I'm generally not a huge fan of Rock-type Pokemon, but there's something endearing about this guy. I guess there's something pretty awesome about following in your dad's footsteps and becoming a Gym Leader, just like him. Or maybe it's because he's one of the more polite Gym Leaders (ever notice how they all either accept defeat gracefully or act like a total douche about it?)
