specky
Four-eyed person
Specky is informal British and Australian slang for someone who wears glasses—a spectacles-wearer.
The term can be affectionate or mildly teasing, often used among children: The other kids called him specky.
In Australian Rules football, a specky (from spectacular) is an impressive high-flying catch where a player leaps onto another's back to mark the ball.
