Eye ball shape, plural or singular

Question

Why is it singular for "globe oculaire?"  The English phrase would seem to be "in the shape of eye balls" since glaçons is plural.  It would be a bit strange to write in English "eye ball shaped ice cream scoops."  There are just too many qualifiers of scoops, IMHO.
