Temple Removal is a common technique used by animators when drawing glasses viewed from the side. In order to show a character's entire eye, part of the glasses' temples (the parts that go over the ears), hinges, or end pieces are not drawn, even though they would normally obstruct the eye.Useful Links
See the Meta category for articles which are not about a specific pair or style of glasses.

Style Descriptors
The main sorting mechanism of this wiki is a group of categories called style descriptors. Each of these categories is used to describe a certain aspect of a pair of glasses, namely lens shape, lens type, and rim coverage. There is also a category for "special styles", which contains certain common or interesting combinations of other descriptors.
