  • Patent number: 8840244
    Abstract: A retainer is releasably secured to a pair of eyeglasses that includes flattened and widened temple members. Each temple member includes a heart-shaped hole at its distal end that serves as the point of attachment for the retainer. The retainer includes a pair of selectively enclosable lobster claw clasps that are coupled to opposite ends of an elongated, highly ornamental necklace. Each clasp includes a C-shaped hooked portion and an articulating finger pivotally coupled thereto, with pivotal displacement of the finger allowing for selective enclosure of the hooked portion. When secured to the glasses, the retainer applies no discomfort to the user since the clasp can rest on the elongated part of the heart-shaped hole. The means for attaching the retainer to the eyeglasses is not only strong and secure but also aesthetically pleasing and can be easily changed to suit the attire of the user.
