Abstract: An eyewear device for aiding vision or protecting eyes of a user is provided. The eyewear device comprises a frame having a first end, a second end, and a centerline with the frame constructed from a plurality of layered flexible, bistable spring bands. A first lens opening is formed completely through the frame between the first end and the centerline of the frame and a second lens opening is formed completely through the frame between the second end and the centerline of the frame. A first lens and a second lens are positioned in the first lens opening and the second lens opening, respectively. The frame is straightenable by tensioning the spring bands. Upon moving the first end in a general direction toward the second end, the spring bands spring into a curve thereby capable of releasably securing the frame to the face of the user.
