Smart People Wear Glasses / Webcomics

Following

Examples of Smart People Wear Glasses in Webcomics.

• In The Dragon Doctors, this trope laid behind Sarin's monocle pre-Gender Bender. He wore it so he'd be taken more seriously as a wizard.
• Invoked in Dumbing of Age: Robin has perfect vision, but wears a pair of prop glasses because they make her seem smarter.
• El Goonish Shive. Tedd Verres is a Teen Genius with a dash of Mad Scientist. He originally wore a pair of large Opaque Nerd Glasses that came with other features like X-Ray Vision, but he mostly wore them because they made him look less feminine. Once he became more comfortable with his appearance, he stopped wearing the glasses at home and then eventually in public, and only puts them on when he wants to look science-y. And then double subverted when he reveals that he's nearsighted, again making him the only main character that wears glasses.
• Girl Genius: While not all the Sparks in the work wear glasses, all of the notable glasses wearers are either Sparks or elderly.
• The Guy Upstairs: Played with with Rozy. She’s very street smart, but almost too much; it comes across as incessant paranoia instead, especially when everything turns out alright.
• The blue guy with glasses in Irrelevator is stickman wearing glasses. Being smart is his thing◊, he does earn the◊ title of being the◊ smart◊ guy though◊.
• Magick Chicks: Sandi Mnemonic is a member of her school's student council and serves as Faith's personal secretary. She's so knowledgeable that the cast page of the comic's print edition describes her as (quote): "a living Google". Plus, she can predict the outcome of future events with 97.09% accuracy, provided she has all the pertinent data to work with.
• Monster of the Week: The complete cartoon X-Files lampshades it in its first strip. In his first scene, Mulder wears glasses. There's an arrow pointing at them with "smart glasses" written next to it.
• Out-of-Placers: Ran, the city's most prominent scholar and author of the in-universe Field Guide, and Matriarch Vizlet, an exceptionally well-traveled intellectual among her people, both wear round pince-nez. Eyeglasses are otherwise quite rare in the setting.
• Parisa:
  • Julian is a nurse, and is by far the smartest member of the main group during the earlier chapters. He is constantly sporting a pair of glasses.
  • Dr. Wyrm also wears glasses whenever he's seen. He delivers the exposition about the world's magic system just before chapter 5, and presumably earned a doctorate of some sort somewhere.
  • Constantine is a librarian, and helps deliver some exposition before chapter 6. One of his most defining features is his pair of rectangle-lensed glasses.
• Sleepless Domain: Vedika, the top student at Future's Promise and The Smart Guy of her training club, normally wears a pair of large round glasses. She removes them, however, upon transforming into the magical girl Mindful Eye.
• Tower of God: It's pretty unlikely that any of the leaders of the Ten Families have mortal eyesight deficiencies, since they're Physical Gods, but The Smart Guy of the group, Poe Bidau Gustang, wears a pair of attractive glasses anyway. They enable him to better see the flow of Shinsu.
