[0027] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the pair of eyeglasses 100 includes two lenses 90 and a frame 1. In this embodiment, the lens 90 is a compound lens made of a plurality of lenses, such as a compound lens with an augmented reality function or a compound lens of presbyopia glasses. Each of the lenses 90 includes a first sub-lens 91 and a second sub-lens 92, and the first sub-lens 91 is overlappingly connected to the second sub-lens 92; however, the type of the lens 90 is not limited to the compound lens and can also be a single-piece lens.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the frame 1 includes two ring bodies 10, two lens fasteners 20, two supporting units 30 and two flexible fasteners 40. However, the amounts of the ring bodies 10, the lens fasteners 20, the supporting units and the flexible fasteners 40 of the frame 1 are not limited to two; the amounts of those units can be respectively changed to one according to the user's requirement (for example, if the user needs to correct the vision of only one eye).

[0029] The two ring bodies 10 are made of a hard material such as plastic or metal, and the two ring bodies 10 are connected to each other. The two ring bodies 10 each respectively include a hollow area 11 and a combining part 12. The hollow area 11 is used for containing the lens 90. The combining part 12 is a protruding block for combining with the flexible fastener 40.

[0030] In the first embodiment of the present invention, the two lens fasteners 20 are two ring-shaped structures, the two lens fasteners 20 are respectively connected to the outside (which is the side away from the user's eye) of the two ring bodies 10, and the ring-shaped structure of the lens fastener 20 surrounds the hollow area 11. The lens fastener 20 is used in combination with the flexible fastener 40 to fasten the lens 90.

[0031] In the first embodiment of the present invention, the two supporting units 30 are respectively connected to the two ring bodies 10, and the supporting units 30 are used for supporting the flexible fasteners 40. In this invention, the two ring bodies 10, the two lens fasteners 20 and the two supporting units 30 are a one-piece structure such that the connection structure between the two ring bodies 10, the two lens fasteners 20 and the two supporting units 30 is stable, and the structure cannot easily be deformed by an external force.

[0032] In the first embodiment of the present invention, the two flexible fasteners 40 are two ring-shaped structures made of rubber or silicone. The two flexible fasteners 40 are respectively supported by the two supporting units 30 and respectively surround the hollow areas 11 of the two ring bodies 10. The two flexible fasteners 40 are respectively located next to the two lens fasteners 20; the two flexible fasteners 40 and the two lens fasteners 20 are respectively and substantially arranged in parallel. The two flexible fasteners 40 are respectively combined with the two ring bodies 10. Each of the flexible fasteners 40 includes a protruding part 41 and a corresponding combining part 42. Two grooves 50 are respectively formed between each of the two lens fastener 20 and the protruding part 41 of the flexible fastener 40 which is adjacent to the lens fastener 20. Each of the grooves 50 is used for fixing each of the lenses 90. The corresponding combining part 42 is a C-shaped structure, and the combining part 12 is fastened to the C-shaped structure of the corresponding combining part 42; via the fastening between the combining part 12 and the corresponding combining part 42, the ring body 10 is combined with the flexible fastener 40 stably. However, the material of the flexible fastener 40 is not limited to rubber and silicone; the flexible fastener 40 can also be made of other flexible and elastic materials. Because the flexible fastener 40 is flexible, when the flexible fastener 40 is used to fasten the lens 90, the flexible fastener 40 will not excessively compress the lens 90, such that the lens 90 will not be deformed permanently under excessive pressure; more particularly, the abovementioned compound lens is less likely to be compressed such that its structure is altered.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 4, when an assembly worker assembles the lens 90 into the frame 1, the assembly worker can push the protruding part 41 along the opening direction A; at this moment, because the flexible fastener 40 is made of rubber or silicone, which has great flexibility and elasticity, the assembly worker can easily push the protruding part 41 without applying too much force. Thus, the opening protruding part 41 will not hinder the assembly worker in placing the lens 90, and the assembly worker can easily insert the lens 90 into the groove 50. Then the assembly worker can stop applying force to the protruding part 41. Via the elasticity of the flexible fastener 40, the protruding part 41 will be restored to its original position, and the protruding part 41 restored to its original position and the lens fastener 20 will fix the lens 90 in the groove 50. In addition, because of the flexibility of the flexible fastener 40, the flexible fastener 40 will not excessively compress the lens 90, and the lens 90 will not be deformed permanently by excessive pressure.

[0034] Therefore, by the design of the eyeglasses 100 of this invention, the assembly worker can easily assemble the frame 1 and the lens 90; further, during the assembly process, the force applied to the eyeglasses 100 by the assembly worker will not cause the frame 1 and the lens 90 to be permanently deformed, so the optical characteristics of the lens 90 will not be affected.

[0035] Please refer to FIG. 5, which illustrates the frame in a second embodiment of the present invention.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 5, the difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in the second embodiment, the frame 1a includes eight flexible fasteners 40a, and the flexible fasteners 40a are block-shaped structures made of rubber or silicone. The rubber or silicone blocks of the eight flexible fasteners 40a are located around the hollow areas 11 of the two ring bodies 10. When the assembly worker needs to assemble the lens into the frame 1a, the assembly worker can push and open each of the flexible fasteners 40a sequentially such that the lens can be fastened between the lens fastener 20 and the flexible fastener 40a.

[0037] However, the amount of the flexible fasteners 40a is not limited to eight and can be changed according to the design requirement.

[0038] Please refer to FIG. 6, which illustrates the frame in a third embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 illustrates the schematic drawing of the ring body, the supporting unit and the flexible fastener combined with each other in the third embodiment of the present invention.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 6, the difference between the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in the frame 1b of the third embodiment, the combining part 12a of the ring body 10a is a C-shaped structure, the corresponding combining part 42a of the flexible fastener 40b is a protruding block, and the C-shaped structure of the combining part 12a and the protruding block of the corresponding combining part 42a are combined with each other stably. The supporting unit 30a further includes a blocking wall 31. Each of the blocking walls 31 and each of the ring bodies 10a which is corresponded to the blocking wall 31 hold each of the flexible fasteners 40b correspondingly from the opposite two sides. Via the combination of the combining part 12a and the corresponding combining part 42a, and the holding of the blocking wall 31 and the ring body 10a, the position of the flexible fastener 40b can be stable, and the flexible fastener 40b will not fall off from the supporting unit 30a.

[0040] Please refer to FIG. 7, which illustrates the frame in the fourth embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 presents a schematic drawing of the ring body, the supporting unit and the flexible fastener combined with each other in the fourth embodiment of the present invention.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 7, the difference between the fourth embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in the frame 1c of the fourth embodiment, each of the supporting units 30b further includes a positioning part 32, and each of the flexible fasteners 40c includes a positioning groove 43. Each of the positioning parts 32 is fastened to the positioning groove 43 of the flexible fastener 40c which is corresponded to the positioning part 32; thus, the flexible fastener 40c can be stably located on the supporting unit 30a without falling off.

[0042] By the structural design of the eyeglasses and the frame of this invention, the assembly worker can assemble the frame and the lens easily; during the assembly process, the force applied by the assembly worker to the eyeglasses will not cause the frame and the lens to be permanently deformed, so the optical characteristics of the lens will not be affected.
