An eyewear device is disclosed including a frame, a temple connected to a lateral side of the frame, an array of light emitting diodes (LEDs) to emit light patterns on an inner surface of the frame or the temple within a peripheral view of a wearer of the eyewear, a processor coupled to the eyewear device, and a memory accessible to the processor. The memory stores programming for execution by the processor and notification patterns corresponding to the LEDs. Execution of the programming configures the eyewear device to identify an event for presentation to the wearer, select a notification pattern corresponding to the identified event, and display the selected notification pattern to the wearer by selectively illuminating the LEDs.

An eyewear system including an eyewear frame and an application module. The eyewear frame including a docking station, and an electronic connector including a first set of preconfigured application connection points. The application module adapted to be mounted to the docking station, and including an electronic device configured to perform a function, and a second set of preconfigured application connection points corresponding to at least some of the first set of preconfigured application connection points. The second set of preconfigured application connection points including at least two different sub-function connections used to support the function of the electronic device.

An eye is illuminated with illumination light. A wavefront image of retina-reflected light is generated and an accommodative eye state value is determined based at least in part on the wavefront image.

One or more safety eyewear devices are described. The safety eyewear includes a heating element that transfers heat to lenses, thereby providing defogging in eyewear suitable for a construction environment.

An eyewear basically includes a front frame, a pair of temples, a lens assembly and a pair of engagement members. The front frame has a pair of connecting parts. Each of the temples has one end connected to the front frame so as to be openable and closeable relative to the front frame. The lens assembly has a light transmission part for transmitting light, and a pair of connected parts are respectively connected to the connecting parts at a time of attachment to the front frame, so that the lens assembly can be detachably attached to the front frame. The engagement members are respectively provided to the temples, and are configured to move toward and away from the front frame in association with opening and closing motions of the temples, so that the engagement members are engageable with the lens assembly.
