The species is readily distinguished from other porpoises by a characteristic dark ring around the eyes, which gives the animals their name. This ring is commonly surrounded by a farther lighter ring. It does not wear spectacles.

A skull later found in Tierra del Fuego was initially thought to be another species, provisionally named Phocoena dioptrica but the individual was later shown to be a spectacled porpoise and this name remains a synonym.
