Abstract: The present multi-purpose eyewear uses a pliable frame and nose bridge in cooperation with strap adjustment and quick release mechanisms to enable multiple uses of the eyewear and adjustment of the eyewear while in place on the head of the wearer. The wraparound frames incorporate a sealant, such as a bonded gel filled rubber, around the lens periphery of the frame to present a comfortable interface between the wearer's skin and the eyewear. The strap adjustment and quick release mechanisms are simple to use and enable the eyewear to be adjusted while in place on the head of the wearer to fit the wearer in a manner to create a water-tight/air-tight seal (fluid-tight seal) around the wearer's eyes in a manner to conform to the contours of the wearer's face and avoid irritation of the skin from prolonged use. The lenses that are used in the eyewear are capable of being manufactured to prescription specifications and can include sunlight protection.
