Harry Potter glasses

Circular wire frames

Round, wire-framed eyeglasses associated with the fictional wizard Harry Potter.

The style—small circular lenses in thin metal frames—became iconic through the book covers and films: She picked up a pair of Harry Potter glasses for her costume.

The term identifies this specific look rather than any brand or prescription.
