Abstract: A protective cover for an eyewear including a lens cleaning system and a frame. The protective cover includes a first end portion, a second end portion, a lens opening configured to allow access to a lens of the eyewear, an outer side, and an inner side. The inner side includes a shape that corresponds to a shape of at least a first side of the frame of the eyewear and at least a portion of the lens cleaning system. The inner side may also include a first cleaning system receiver configured to cover a first portion of the lens cleaning system, and a second cleaning system receiver configured to cover a second portion of the lens cleaning system. The protective cover encloses a first side of the frame and the lens cleaning system. The protective cover reduces a failure of the lens cleaning system due to debris.

Abstract: An apparatus is described to divert sweat away from a wearer's eyes or eyewear. The apparatus includes an elongate base member and a plurality of pliable ridges abutting the base member that, when pressed against the wearer's forehead, form channels. The channels collect and divert sweat away from the eyes so that the sweat drips down the side or back of the head, or down the nose, instead of flowing into the eyes or onto eyewear worn by the wearer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are sports helmets having modular components. A modular component includes an eyewear adapter that is releasably attachable to the helmet and configured to interface with corresponding eyewear in an orientation that permits a wearer of the helmet to see through the eyewear. The eyewear adapter is configured such that, in use, the eyewear adapter enhances the fit or function of the eyewear relative to the use of the helmet and the eyewear without the eyewear adapter. A modular component includes electronics modules that can be mechanically and electrically coupled to the helmet. A modular component includes other functional modules that affect the aerodynamics of the helmet, the air flow of the helmet, the fit of the helmet, or the look of the helmet.

Abstract: Eyewear can be provided that comprises at least one lens, at least one earstem, and a retention assembly that interconnects the lens with the earstem. The retention assembly can include an engagement protrusion attached to the lens and a coupling mechanism attached to an end of the earstem. The coupling mechanism can include a housing configured to receive the engagement protrusion and a lever mechanism being operative to move between open and closed positions for disengaging or engaging with the engagement protrusion.
