Abstract: Described herein are various embodiments of eyewear provided for advantageous use in sports and work, as well as in casual activity. According to one embodiment, an eyeglass can include a frame and an eyecup assembly coupled to the frame. The eyecup assembly can include a resilient side member that has a first proximal portion that is fixed relative to the frame and a second distal portion that is movable relative to the frame and biased toward the frame. The eyecup assembly can also include an adjustment mechanism that is coupled to the resilient side member and positioned at least partially between the resilient side member and the frame. The adjustment mechanism can be selectively operable to flex the resilient side member to move the second distal portion away from the frame and to un-flex the resilient side member to move the second distal portion toward the frame.

Abstract: Described herein are various embodiments of eyewear provided for advantageous use in sports and work, as well as in casual activity, and, if desired, in conjunction with helmets or other headgear. According to one exemplary embodiment, eyewear can include a frame and respective spaced-apart temple portions coupled to the frame. Each temple portion can include a proximal portion, a distal portion, and a biasing element that is movable along at least the distal portion in a longitudinal direction of the temple portion. Each biasing element can urge the distal portion of the respective temple portion in a lateral direction, which is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, as the biasing element is moved along the distal portion.

Abstract: A prescription adapter ring for use in eyewear, and in particular, a prescription adapter ring for use in wrap-type eyewear.

Abstract: Eyewear is disclosed for use in sports and the like which captures airflow impinging on the front of the eyewear, filters it through baffling or a particulate filter to prevent the ingress of particulate matter, and then directs it through the dead space between the lenses and the wearer's eyes. The eyewear includes a frame shaped to fit a wearer's face including a front-facing ventilation opening, one or two lenses mounted in the frame, and a ventilation liner which includes filtered upper ventilation grooves extending through the top and bottom surface of the eyewear to allow air to flow through the dead space behind the lens. A cushion can be attached to the rear surface of the ventilation liner for cushioning the eyewear against the user's face.

Abstract: Eyewear is disclosed for use in sports and the like which allows the wearer to adjust the flow of air across the inside surface of the lens without having to remove the eyewear. The eyewear includes a frame shaped to fit a wearer's face, one or two lenses mounted in the frame, and a temple bracket mounted on each side of the frame. Each temple bracket has a front surface substantially contiguous with the front surface of the frame and containing an inlet opening. An inner surface of each temple bracket contains an outlet opening and a passageway connecting the inlet opening and outlet opening. A block is positioned for sliding movement in the passageway and is connected to a button mounted for sliding movement on the outer surface of each temple bracket.
