Abstract: An improved eyeglass holder is provided which includes an elongated base having a flat bottom and upstanding opposed spaced sides defining a central space therebetween. The upper ends of the sides terminate in lips which diverge outwardly from each other. A flexible eyeglass cradle preferably of several interconnected layers of soft flexible resilient material overlays and is secured to at least a portion of the lips and depends therefrom in the central space above the base bottom. The cradle covers the lips to prevent damage to eyeglasses when they are passed into the cradle. In one embodiment one or more cradle layers have tabs extending outwardly from the side margins thereof through opening(s) in the lips and are secured against the inner or outer surface thereof by rods disposed in the tubes. The lips themselves may also have extensions defining spaced openings alignable with the tab tubes or may have spaced pins over which the tab tubes are releasably secured.
