Abstract: A rimless eyeglass assembly is constructed using a first lens and a second lens with slotted openings for receiving a wire. A wire having a first end and a second end is inserted into the slotted openings of the first and second lens to form an entire pair of eyeglasses.
Abstract: A rimless eyeglass assembly is constructed using a first lens and a second lens with holes for receiving a wire. A wire having a first end and a second end is threaded through the holes of the first and second lens to form eyewear, in some cases including a bridge portion and temples.

Abstract: Rimless eyewear features a wire that encircles a lens. Systems are provided for selectively increasing or decreasing a tensile load on the wire to facilitate assembly and maintenance of the eyewear. An adjusting screw, different wire securement positions, and/or adjustment shims provide easy tension adjustment of the wire and secure the eye lens in a predetermined position and orientation.
Abstract: An eyewear frame assembly comprises at least one lens that is substantially encircled by a flexible wire or cable. The wire can be constructed as a monofilament wire or a multi-filament wire. Various closing members are shown, some of which feature magnetic members.
Abstract: Eyewear has a wire that encircles each of a pair of lenses respectively. A tensioning assembly can adjust and tension the wire. Two variations of tensioning assemblies are shown. One tensioning assembly has a spool on which a portion of the wire is wound. Another tensioning assembly has an insert that pulls a portion of the wire inwardly within a projection that extends outward from the lens.
