Eye glasses are not as difficult to paint as you may think. Look for the shadows created by the glasses, and paint them. Look for the highlights on the frame and paint them. If they are the thin small frames that may be all you may need to do other than paint the highlights on glass. In most cases 360 degrees of the eye glass does not have to be painted, many times indicating the glasses is enough. Look for detail like the magnified light created on the zygoma or cheek by the glass, or the noserests and thier uniqueness.
Glasses have helped me with my drawing. When placing the glasses I have found my nose to be too long or short, so glasses can become a measuring device for the length of the nose.
Hope this helps, Daniel.
