I'm not sure if this'll work for studio lighting setups but I take a lot of pictures for identification media at work (P&S digital, built-in flash)...

I have eyeglass wearers slide the temple pieces slightly upward, so they aren't resting on their ears. This angles the lenses downward and almost always minimizes or eliminates visible reflections. With straight-on poses, the position of the temple pieces is hardly (if at all) noticeable. You may still get the occasional specular reflection from metal framed glasses, though.
