== Played straight ==
=== [[Fan Art]] ===▼
=== [[Comic Books]], [[Newspaper Comics]] and [[Web Comics]] ===▼
* When chibi (aka [[Super-Deformed]]) artwork is commissioned of more ordinarily drawn art, this type of eyes is a common choice because it fits the character design well and emphasizes the animation of the simplified face.▼
* [[Garfield]] and most other characters in his strip have huge, oval-shaped eyes.
** Jim Davis frequently uses this trope, as seen in his other strips like ''[[U.S. Acres]]''. Surprisingly, despite practically being a trademark, the sphere eyes in ''Garfield''were a result of [[Art Evolution]], as the characters originally had normal circular eyes.

* Bob from ''[[The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob]]''▼
