There is provided a spectacles having two lenses, a rigid or flexible frame including a frame part extending on an upper or a lower lens edge of each of the two lenses, an arm linked on each end of the frame using a hinge, a plastic thread associated with each of the two lenses, each end of the relevant plastic thread is attached to the frame, each attachment point is formed as follows the end of the individual plastic thread forms a loop, which wraps around a frame part, the two longitudinal sections of the end section, which form a loop and extend in parallel to one another, are jointly guided through the single longitudinal borehole of a sleeve, and are enclosed by the sleeve, and the sleeve encloses the two longitudinal sections so closely that the set position of the sleeve relative to the plastic thread remains unchanged, wherein independent. displacement of the sleeve is suppressed due to the friction as a result of the close contact, but the tension of the thread wrapped around the lenses is freely selectable by displacing the longitudinal sections relative to one another and/or by displacing the sleeve on the longitudinal sections.

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing an ophthalmic lens to be mounted in a frame, the ophthalmic lens including an optical front face, an optical rear face, and a peripheral edge that surrounds the optical front and rear faces and that has a base portion carrying a fixing unit suitable for attaching the ophthalmic lens to at least a part of the frame, the method includes the steps of: determining a central part of the ophthalmic lens that includes at least one of the optical front face and the optical rear face; determining the peripheral edge with the fixing unit; calculating a planned manufactured device including both the fixing unit and the central part together; and manufacturing, using an additive manufacturing technology, the planned manufactured device in order to form the ophthalmic lens.

A predetermined convergence angle is maintained, and strength is improved. Accordingly, there are provided an image generator that generates an image, a pair of optical plates to be arranged in front of both eyes of an observer who observes the image, the pair of optical plates causing the image to be displayed, a first frame that holds the pair of optical plates, and a second frame including a to-be-fixed part, in which a fixing part to which the to-be-fixed part is fixed is provided at the central part of the first frame in the horizontal direction.

An apparatus and a method for optical measurement of an internal contour of a spectacle frame are disclosed. The apparatus contains an optical unit, which is configured to capture light reflected from an illuminated section of the inner contour of the spectacle frame. The optical unit is insertable into the inner contour of the spectacle frame and, when inserted as intended, is rotatable relative to the spectacle frame. The optical unit contains at least one light source, an objective, and at least one optical sensor, wherein the light source is configured to generate a light section, wherein at least one section of the inner contour is illuminable by the light section, wherein the objective is configured to image the illuminated section of the inner contour onto the optical sensor, and wherein the optical sensor is configured to capture the light reflected by the illuminated section of the inner contour.

An eyeglass frame is disclosed comprising a bridge and two rims connected by the bridge. Each rim is configured to contain a lens. The eyeglass frame also comprises two split end pieces. Each split end piece comprises a first portion and a second portion. Each split end piece is coupled to and extends outward from a corresponding rim of the two rims on a side of the corresponding rim opposite the bridge. The eyeglass frame further comprises two temples. Each temple comprises a lock on an end of the temple. The lock is configured to at least partially contain both the first portion and the second portion of the split end piece and secure the temple to the corresponding rim and secure the lens within the corresponding rim.

The invention relates to an eyewear frame, comprising a forehead part with two ends and arranged to extend around the eyes of a user when worn and two temple parts each extending rearwardly from a front of the eyewear frame, and from each end of the forehead part. The forehead part and the temple part being moulded together in a single mould from a first polymer material and comprising a plastic hinge located at the junction of each end of the forehead part and each temple part, said plastic hinge being formed by a region of the polymer material having thickness which is significantly less than the thickness of corresponding forehead part ends and temple parts adjacent the plastic hinge region, such that the temple parts may be moved about the plastic hinge with respect to the forehead part between an open position in which the eyewear may be worn on a user's head, and a closed position in which the temple parts are arranged approximately parallel to the forehead part and the eyewear may be more conveniently stowed when not in use. The plastic hinges exert a restoring force which urges the temple parts of the frame to either the closed or open position, such that the eye wear frame automatically folds back to the folded position after use, or automatically opens to the open position. The plastic hinge may be formed as a curved strip. The eyewear frame may be co-moulded with the first polymer material and a second polymer material, having a lower modulus of elasticity, or flexural modulus, than the first polymer.

The present invention provides a pair of eyeglasses that can adapt to different vision needs in each eye and environments of different light intensity. The eyeglasses with easy snap-on lenses allow one to select individual lens of proper vision correction for each eye, and mount the lenses to the eyeglass frame with ease and without the use of any tool.

An eyeglass frame is disclosed comprising a bridge and two rims connected by the bridge. Each rim is configured to contain a lens. The eyeglass frame also comprises two split end pieces. Each split end piece comprises a first portion and a second portion. Each split end piece is coupled to and extends outward from a corresponding rim of the two rims on a side of the corresponding rim opposite the bridge. The eyeglass frame further comprises two temples. Each temple comprises a lock on an end of the temple. The lock is configured to at least partially contain both the first portion and the second portion of the split end piece and secure the temple to the corresponding rim and secure the lens within the corresponding rim.

A pad holder for spectacle mounts, the pad holder comprising a fastening part configured to be mounted in a housing of the spectacle mount along an insertion axis X oriented from back to front, the fastening part comprising a closing face comprising an auxiliary groove configured to cooperate with a lens of the spectacle mount in order to lock the pad holder and a mounting face comprising at least one blocking tooth configured to be forced against a wall of the housing during the mounting of the lens.

A lens holder for eyeglass frames having a pliable body with a lens opening for engagement of a lens therein and a circumferential edges configured to engage with a lens aperture of an eyewear frame to hold the lens operatively positioned therein. A front surface portion extending from the pliable body contacts a front surface of the eyeglass frame and is formed with a width narrower than a rear surface portion extending from the pliable body which contacts a rear facing surface of the eyewear frame. The shorter front surface deforms under the force of a projectile contacting an engaged lens within the lens holder and dissipates the force to help maintain the lens mounted within the lens opening and prevent dismounts the full force causes when not dissipated.
