Abstract: An eyeglass assembly includes a pair of lenses with surrounding lens frames interconnected by bridges joining the lens frames together and cooperating therewith to form an opening for receiving a portion of the wearer's nose. Support means are provided on each lens frame below the bridge for engaging the wearer's nose for additional support. The nose supports include first and second legs formed from a unitary strip of resilient material bent at its mid-portion so that the two legs extend in generally the same direction from an intermediate fold portion. The two legs are resiliently movable toward and away from each other, and a first leg is joined to the lens frame so as to be resiliently movable with respect thereto. The legs may extend in generally upward or downward directions, that is, generally toward and away from the bridge member. The second legs are located adjacent the nose-receiving opening and carry nose-engaging surfaces.

Abstract: An adjustable nose piece that is incorporable by sunglasses includes a bridge, nose pads and wires connecting the nose pads to respective rims of the sunglasses. The bridge may be hinged to provided a collapsible sunglasses. The wires include an intermediate portion unattached to the respective rim or nose pad. This free portion may be deformed to provide adjustment of the nose pads. The wires are strong enough for normal wear and use, and sufficiently ductile for adjustment of the nose pads. The wires are susceptible of repeated plastic deformations to allow successive adjustment.

Abstract: Eyeglasses have lenses resting in partial rims and these are held tight by means of a thread which travels in grooves on the lens edges. Adjustment and tightening of the tension of the thread to hold the lens on the eyeglasses is accomplished by a tensioning device carried on the eyeglasses. The tension of the thread is lessened to allow lens replacement or is increased to hold the lens in position with operation of the tensioning device.

Abstract: Sports goggles are formed with anterior and posterior frame sections each having a bow spaced from each other to define a slot to provide increased ventilation of space behind lens and particularly against the rearward surface of the lens for the elimination or reduction of fogging. The anterior frame section carries the lens at a position spaced farther than normal from the wearer's face and posterior frame section carries a nosebridge and temples. These goggles may be economically manufactured by molding lightweight material into a separate posterior frame section and a separate anterior frame section, then joining the two frame sections through tab and slot assembly.
