An eyewear system comprising eyeglasses and a case, the eyeglasses comprising a first lens, a second lens, and a bendable bridge disposed between the first lens and second lens, the bendable bridge comprising a spring providing a spring force when the bridge is bent from a rest position, the eyeglasses being adapted to move from a wearable configuration in which the bendable bridge is in a rest position to a stored configuration in which the first and second lenses are moved towards one another, the bendable bridge being bent from its rest position in the stored configuration, the case comprising a door and an opening through which the eyeglasses pass during insertion and guides sized and configured with respect to the eyeglasses to engage and move the first lens towards the second lens against spring force of the bridge to the stored configuration during insertion of the eyeglasses and closing of the door.

The present disclosure pertains to an eyewear apparatus capable of allowing a wearer to provide useful information to a hairdresser. The apparatus comprises at least one visual device configured to provide vision to the wearer. During operation, the apparatus is configured to be disposed on the wearer such that the disposal of the apparatus causes no hindrance to the hairdresser. The apparatus causes no hindrance to the hairdresser, by means of having no support arms that are capable of providing hindrance on the person of the wearer where the hairdresser is conducting his given work functions, during operation. In an application, the apparatus includes a maximum of two visual devices, the first visual device, and a second visual device. The visual devices include lenses or glasses or other mechanism directed towards near-sightedness, or far-sightedness.

Reading glasses, more specifically pince-nez glasses, for short-term, close viewing and reading. For better placement of the reading glasses on the nose, the bridge of the reading glasses is provided with knobs, of which two are located on the outside, making it comfortable to grasp and place the glasses on the nose with two fingers and third knob is located on the upper centre of the bridge. Bridge of the reading glasses is ergonomic. The measurements of the radius of bridge of the reading glasses have been developed ellipsoidal in shape, where radius r.sub.1 is 7.0 mm and r.sub.2 is 7.5 mm and the angle of the bridge is 36.

This invention refers to armless spectacles made from a sheet of material that includes at least a second folding line in stabilisation means. The invention proposes several methods of ensuring the second line and offering even greater rigidity. The spectacles can be converted from a non-functional state into a functional assembled state suitable for use by manipulating the configuration of at least one stabilising means in the bridge area. The spectacles have an enhanced rigidity thus increasing the overall stability of the spectacles during use. They can be presented basically flat for storage or transport and be easily manipulated to achieve the configuration for use. The spectacles may further present enhanced fastening and handling means that increase fastening stability as well as easy placement and removal of the spectacles on and from the nose, which further enhances reliability during use.

Earpiece-less glasses including an interchangeable left eye frame, an interchangeable right eye frame and a nose piece connecting the left eye frame to the right eye frame. The left eye frame and the right eye frame each provide eye lens pockets configured to hold and snuggly fit a respective first eye lens in the respective pockets. The left eye frame and the right eye frame each provide an opening to the pockets so that the first lenses can be replaced with second lenses. A magnification strength of the first lenses may be different from the magnification strength of the second lenses.

A system for mounting an eyewear lens on a user. The system includes a pair of nasal appliques, a bridge member, and a pair of lateral compression elements, with the bridge member and compression elements being attachable to an eyewear lens. The bridge member is magnetically engageable to the nasal appliques to limit translatable movement of the lens relative to the user, while the compression elements compress against opposed sides of the users head to mitigate pivotal movement of the lens relative to the user.

An eyewear system may be eyeglasses and a case, the eyeglasses may be a first lens, a second lens, and a bendable bridge disposed between the first lens and second lens, the bendable bridge may be a spring providing a spring force when the bridge is bent from a rest position, the eyeglasses being adapted to move from a wearable configuration in which the bendable bridge is in a rest position and the first lens and second lens are in a first configuration to a stored configuration in which the first and second lenses are moved towards one another relative to the first configuration, the bendable bridge being bent from its rest position in the stored configuration, the case may be a door and an opening through which the eyeglasses pass during insertion and guides sized and configured with respect to the eyeglasses to engage and move the first lens towards the second lens against spring force of the bridge to the stored configuration during insertion of the eyeglasses and closing of the door, wherein the case may be a thickness of less than about 5 mm and a length of less than about 90 mm.

An assembly comprises a pince-nez molded in one piece and comprises a substantially planar structure which has a first rim provided with a first lens and a second rim provided with a second lens, the structure having a plane which passes through the first and second rims and the first and second lenses, the first and second rims each being extended by a linkage which connects them together; a holding element intended to be secured to the pince-nez is in contact with the linkage and comprises at least two portions, the holding element secured to the linkage being elastically deformable between a storage position whereby the portions are separated from each other, and a tensioned position whereby the portions are constrained closer together; and a case intended to contain the pince-nez for the storage of the pince-nez.
