Abstract: A construction for sunglasses adapted to be fitted over prescription eyewear having conventional nose pads and eyeglass temples comprises a lens frame having lens rims with corresponding lenses supported therein, a bridge between the lens rims and right and left temples extending rearwardly from corresponding pivots with the lens frame. The lens frame is free of any rearwardly-extending panels along the lower portion of the lens rims in order to avoid interference with the prescription eyewear, the bridge is designed with a nose-encircling edge permitting the sunglasses-prescription eyewear combination to be supported by the nose-pads of the eyewear, and the temples of the sunglasses include concavities adapted to receive the temples of the prescription eyewear, all to insure a more comfortable fit of the sunglasses over the prescription eyewear.
