Abstract: A protective cover for eyeglasses is provided comprising a pair of complementary tubular members that are fitted over the temples of a pair of glasses, each tubular member having sufficient material or elasticity to stretch to completely cover the lenses of the eyeglasses and a means to fit snugly around the temples. The pair of tubular members are formed as part of a single strap-like device which may be composed of a single tubular member or, alternatively, a strap having two ends, each of which are attached to the tubular member. Such embodiment allows a wearer to use the protective cover as a strap for holding the eyeglasses around his or her neck when not being worn.

Abstract: A protective cover for eyeglasses is provided comprising a pair of complementary tubular members that are fitted over the temples of a pair of glasses, each tubular member having sufficient material or elasticity to stretch to completely cover the lenses of the eyeglasses and a means to fit snugly around the temples. A fixed retaining member is attached to one end of the tubular member and a one or more strips are attached about the opposite end of the tubular member, which end is intended to be stretched over the lenses. A sliding retaining member is also provided on the tubular member and is retained thereon by means of the fixed retaining member and the strips. In operation, the tubular member is retained on the temples by twisting the tubular member about the temple, using the fixed retaining member at one end and the combination of the strips and the sliding retaining member at the other end to frictionally engage the temple and prevent the tubular member from unravelling.
