Smart glasses comprise a glasses frame. The smart glasses further comprise a pair of glasses legs connected to two lateral portions of the glasses frame respectively, each of the glasses legs having a first end and a second end, wherein the second end of each of the glasses legs bends inwardly to form a first arc portion. In addition, the smart glasses further comprise a pair of clamping members each disposed at one of the glasses legs, wherein each of the clamping members comprises an elastic clamping element, said elastic clamping element being disposed at the inner side of said second end, wherein said elastic clamping element having a free end that bends inwardly to form a second arc portion.

An eyewear retention device that comprises two retaining devices, each meant to be positioned on a temple member of a pair of eyeglasses. The retainer devices are meant to be positioned between the concha and pinna of the ear so that hold the eyeglasses on the nose of the wearer securely at the wearer's desired portion without any slippage of the eyeglasses along the nose.

Wearable electronic devices, for example wearable camera systems, and methods for attaching electronic devices such as camera systems to eyewear or other wearable articles are described.

The present disclosure relates to a novel eyewear system and a method to configure the same. An eyewear system consistent with the present disclosure comprises an eyewear frame and a lens casing attached thereto. The eyewear system comprises a set of insertable lenses fitted between said eyewear frame and said lens casing. The lens casing comprises a pliable material to receive the set of insertable lenses. Further, the present disclosure provides a method for a consumer to design and order a pair of eyewear using an online system. The method may include prompting a user to choose from a plurality of unique frame options. Based on the user's selection of the frame, display to the user a plurality of lens casing options. In addition, based on the user's selection of the lens casing options, associate the selected frame and the selected lens casing with a customer order.

A skin contact pad for eyeglass frames that helps increase the friction between the skin and the eyeglasses. The skin contact pad has a body with a face surface that touches the skin of a person wearing the eyeglasses. Concavities are formed on the skin contact pad. Each of the concavities has a concave surface defined within an encompassing base. The encompassing base of each concavity is independent and complete. As the concavities move across skin, the skin bulges slightly into the concavities. As the skin moves under the concavities, the bulges move and a slight suction is created within the concavities that bias the skin contact pad toward the skin. The bias that is created helps hold the eyeglasses in place on the head of a user.
