Apply less product there and/or prime the area very well (:

To be honest I don't think there's much you can do. I've tried everything under the sun and no matter what I do my glasses still rub off a little bit of my makeup at the sides of my nose

Apply a little eyeshadow base before foundation.

You can minimize it, but you're not going to prevent it 100%. I use Estee Lauder Double Wear Maximum Coverage Foundation (because of its staying powder ) on my nose only just for the sole purpose of minimizing those marks. I don't like this foundation as a whole face foundation because it's very drying and masky on my very dry skin. My nose is the one area that's not dry.

I get them to from my glasses. They are so annoying and I've tried everything!

I remove my glasses a hundred times a day and powder the area. That is the only thing I've found helps. Also as Marleen suggested, a full coverage foundation that doesn't budge such as double wear or colorstay.

I have the same problem, but to minimize it I put a little bit of eyeshadow primer where my glasses sit, it minimizes the problem dramatically. And make sure you clean that part of your glasses with soap and water, as I have found that if I don't, I break out in that area😑

This used to happen to me.
I wouldn't really suggest putting too much primer there if the primer is one of those gel types of silicone based primers cause that'll only make it worse in my opinion but if you're using a primer that's more mattifying or water based it should be okay.
I also, prefer something like an eyeshadow primer which are more dry and help prevent creasing and smudging whereas face primers tend to work more at making your foundation apply smoother and not cling to dry areas as much.

I personally, wouldn't go and apply a full coverage product, in fact, if use something with less product. I prefer using a powder foundation, a small amount and then use fix + and then a sealing spray to REALLY set it and it will prevent smudging and such.
You could use liquid or cream foundation in the area but if find that powders tend to respond better when using a sealing spray.
I find that the silicones or oil in liquids and creams still allow the product to smudge compared to powder

I wear glasses and I set it with powder. I "bake" there if you will

A weird trick that works well is to dab a little hairspray with your finger onto the nose piece. It won't stop the indentation from happening, but it'll prevent the makeup from sticking to your glasses, so that area won't be as red and noticeable.
