Abstract: An eyeglass frame comprises a main support structure, a pair of rims each comprising a relatively rigid upper rim member and a flexible tie attached at its ends to the upper rim member. The nose pads have grooves for receiving them on inner terminal parts of the respective upper rim members. There are two transverse holes in the terminal part of each upper rim member. A passageway continues each groove through a land in each nose pad. The ends portion of each tie is threaded upwards through the passageway and then through the holes in the upper rim member for attachment thereto. The inner surfaces of the nose pads bearing against the wearer's nose have no recesses or the like for collecting dirt or grease.
