Abstract: A modular eyewear apparatus includes a frame member having left and right socket portions each having a generally circular rim defining an interior void, respectively, and being connected by a bridge portion, the left and the right socket portion having a temple connector extending rearwardly from a respective rim. A lens holding member has a pair of adjacent rim sections selectively coupled to the rims of the left and the right socket portions, respectively. The eyewear apparatus includes proximal and distal ends, respectively, each proximal end being selectively coupled to a respective temple connector such that the temple members are interchangeable. The configurations of the selected members themselves enable them to be quickly and efficiently released from an assembly or to be interchangeably arranged into a new assembly as described above.
