  • Patent number: 9804412
    Abstract: The eyewear comprises a frame, left and right lenses, a bridge member, and left and right arms comprising temporal extensions. A bridge spans between the left and right enclosures such that the two enclosures are joined together at a position, when worn, at the approximate longitudinal center of the wearer's face. The frame is hingedly coupled to the respective arms. At each end of each coupling member, there is a spring/tensioning element that biases each arm inward towards a closed position. Each arm comprises temporal extensions projecting inward from each arm such that when worn, the respective extensions are pressed against the wearer's temple regions of the head. When worn, the arms lightly press the temporal extensions against the wearer's temples and suspend the bridge member above the nose such that little or no pressure is placed upon the wearer's nose or any other part of the face.
