    Hogwarts students

    Harry Potter wears round glasses.

    Percy Weasley wears glasses that are consistently described as horn-rimmed.

    Hogwarts staff

    McGonagall occasionally wears square-shaped glasses. Her animagus form has markings around its eyes that mirror their shape.

    Dumbledore of course has his half-moon glasses.

    Professor Trelawney wears glasses.

    Other characters

    Several unnamed goblins are mentioned to be wearing glasses.

    Moaning Myrtle wears glasses.

    Ernie Prang, driver of the Knight Bus, wears glasses.

    The witch who runs the Magical Menagerie shop in Diagon Alley has glasses.

    Rita Skeeter wears glasses. Her animagus form has antennae that mirror their shape.

    Rufus Scrimgeour wears glasses.

    Bob Odgen, a ministry employee from a pensieve memory about the Gaunts, wears glasses.

    Molly Weasley seems to wear glasses for reading.

    Dumbledore has glasses in the books, right? Plus Myrtle. And Rita Skeeter. But I can’t remember if they also had glasses in the movies. Myrtle’s a goddamn ghost, though - your eyesight really carries over to that?

    Myrtle is the only “student” who wears glasses in the movies. But shes also not currently a student as shes been sucking dirt for a long while now.
