Description

FIG. 1 is a top perspective of an eyeglass clip showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a right-side elevation view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a back elevational view thereof; and,

FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the eyeglass clip shown in a state of use.

A characteristic feature of the design of the eyeglass clip also resides in a free end of an upper arm and a free end of a lower arm of the eyeglass clip being substantially parallel with one another.

A characteristic feature of the design of the eyeglass clip further resides in the upper and lower arms of the eyeglass clip forming a flared opening for one-handed ease of use.

A characteristic feature of the design of the eyeglass clip still further resides in that the form of the eyeglass clip offers retention between the upper and lower arms without a need for secondary mechanical features.

A characteristic feature of the design of the eyeglass clip also resides in that the eyeglass clip has a flat cross-section for stability and low profile to be visually and physically discreet in use.

The broken lines shown in the figure drawings represent environmental structure and form not part of the claimed design.

Claims
