I have been extremely good in my academic life but was never labelled a book worm because of specs 
may be first impression aisa padta hoga but it just takes 1 min for me to change the perception
.... there are people who are book worn but don't have specs and vice versa...I really don't know what's the whole idea of befriending someone because of the specs... I mean why not, I wouldn't even think specs as a criteria , oh for that matter even looks 
I used to hate the narrative they gave about people having specs in the cinema world....they used to show them as too shy or too intelligent to too dumb
But with YRHPK it kind a gave a different treatment to the whole narrative...mishti is as normal as any other girl , just like real life people with specs are ... 
I know you are in college, just stepping into a different world, so I can understand all these thoughts very well , when I was living in hostel for some years , new set up , new area , new people....certain thoughts came in my mind too ,it happens, it's really natural ... it's a phase you aren't alone , we all go through all this ....right now don't think too much , just focus on your career
You know once you enter a professional life , you will miss this student phase like anything
so make good use of the amazing years that you have got
all I want to say is that try to be comfortable in your skin, you are talking about specs, there is a whole lot that judge others on the basis of their skin colour, hair and what not...beyond a point we can't stop people judging ...and trust me I have had such thoughts too.... beyond a point you will realise that it dosent matter what people say....at every stage you will find such people who will judge you on something, today this then something else
Even in this story if you see , abir didn't fall in love with mishti because she was a girl with glasses , it has more to do with her inner personality, he fell in love with a girl jo "genre dard mein bhi hasna jaanti ho " he fell in love with a girl who was a strong fierce woman...who never shies away from keeping her points across be it courtship or be it not going for eye surgery, a girl who is happy and confident in her own way ..that's her inner personality that has drawn abir towards her ....
So your real friends , the people who really love you will always admire your inner beauty and personality and will never judge you for all these things 


Regarding the rest of the world , let them say whatever they want , who cares ...own your specs and be the boss 
Sorry I don't wrote so much here but felt that I should tell you
