What exactly is a "Nobita face"?

Question

After Gankyou in Joshiraku removes her glasses, her eyes change to '3' characters.

Kukuru, Tetora, and Gankyou with '3' eyes; subtitle "So her glasses were actually suppressing her..."

Marii then exclaims:

Marii; subtitled "Why the Nobita face?!"

I understand Nobita is a character in Doraemon, but I haven't found any information online either of pictures where Nobita has his glasses off, or any references to a "Nobita face".

Can someone explain this joke further?

From the Doraemon Wikia:

Nobita's eyes are never drawn consistently. Sometimes they look like the number 3, sometimes they're black beaded, and sometimes, like in the case of the recent movies, they're normal eyes.
