Abstract: A case for glasses with a closing mechanism comprising a pair of flexible arms extending from the walls of the top of the case. Each flexible arm terminates with a wedge shaped cam. A pair of holes in the walls of the bottom of the case are present at points opposing the cams. When the case is closed, the cams engage the bottom walls, forcing the flexible arms inward. When the case is fully closed, the cams engage the opposing holes and thus secure the case in the closed position. The case may be opened by pressing the cams inward.
