I've searched on Intellij online help site, have Googled the question above, and have searched previous questions on this site and have not found out what the little green glasses icon signifies in the variables section of a debugging session of android studio.

Android Studio provides a debugger that allows you to do the following and more: Select a device to debug your app on. Set breakpoints in your Java, Kotlin, and C/C++ code. Examine variables and evaluate expressions at runtime.
In short, USB Debugging is a way for an Android device to communicate with the Android SDK (Software Developer Kit) over a USB connection. It allows an Android device to receive commands, files, and the like from the PC, and allows the PC to pull crucial information like log files from the Android device.
USB Debugging allows an Android device to communicate with a computer that's running the Android SDK in order to use advanced operations. When you develop Android apps, you have to install the Android Software Developer Kit (SDK) on your computer.
Press Ctrl + Alt + F5 (or Shift + F9 ) to launch the app in debug mode. Choose Run -> Attach to process and select the signature of an app to enable the debug mode, which is already installed via adb.
