Abstract: Exemplary embodiments include a safety eyewear including: a lens permanently attached to a removable lens carrier; and a frame removably attached to the removable lens carrier, the removable lens carrier and the frame extend from a bottom of a side portion of the lens across an upper portion of the lens to a bottom of an opposite side portion of the lens wherein the safety eyewear provides a user with an unobstructed field of vision during use.

Abstract: A brow bar and lens assembly for eyeglasses is provided wherein a flexible brow bar member is attached to a lens assembly only along a central region. By attaching the lens and brow bar in this manner, the brow bar is allowed to flex relative to the lens thereby providing additional means for adjusting the width of the eyeglasses and increasing the comfort for the wearer. Further, the lens construction may include channels along its top edge thereby creating voids that provide a space into which the two ends of the brow bar can travel when deflected relative to the central region.

Abstract: A clip for attaching a strap to a pair of eye wear, such as goggles, includes a body portion, a slot to secure an end of the strap, a detent supported on the body to rotatably secure the clip to the goggle, and an engagement member for removably attaching the clip to the goggle. In one embodiment, the engagement member is a pivotal fastener that is movable between a position where the clip is attached to the goggle body and a position where it is removed from the goggle.

Abstract: A face shield support includes an adjustable frame which fits over the head of a user during use and provides support for the face shield frame. In one embodiment, the frame includes a first, or frontal strap that extends from approximately above the ears of the user and across the forehead of the user, and a second or rear adjustable strap extending from approximately above the ears of the user and around the base of the user's head adjacent the occipital lobe. Connecting the rear and frontal straps are a pair of mounting members which secure the face shield frame to the support and which also pivotally connect the frontal and rear adjustable straps. An upper bridge may also be provided which extends over the top portion of a user's head and further secures the frontal and rear straps together. The frontal strap may optionally included an expanded frontal area for additional comfort.

Abstract: A safety eyewear assembly includes safety eyewear and a prescription lens insert. The safety eyewear includes a frame having a brow bar configured to extend across the brow of the wearer and further includes a plurality of raised shoulders spaced along the brow bar, and a unitary safety lens removably mounted adjacent the outer surface of the brow bar wherein vertically extending venting channels are formed between the outer surface of the brow bar and an inner surface of the lens. The prescription lens insert includes a left lens frame configured for receiving a prescription lens, a right lens frame configured for receiving a prescription lens, and a sculpted connecting wire configured to be received in interfitting mating relation with at least one of the raised shoulders of the brow bar, and further configured to extend through the venting channels such that the sculpted wire is releasably captured between the outer surface of the brow bar and the inner surface of the lens.

Abstract: A face shield assembly including a frame and a removable protective element supported by the frame is disclosed herein. The protective element is removably supported in an opening of the frame by a channel, without the use of fasteners. Because the face shield lacks fasteners, it is easy to remove and replace, even with the use of gloves. In one embodiment, the frame is molded as a single, unitary member and includes an upper detent, a lower detent and a channel formed between a lip and the frame that receives an edge of the protective element in order to hold the protective element within the frame. In another embodiment, the frame is pivotally supported on a support structure such that the frame can be moved between an upper (out of use) and a lower (in use) position, and may further include an adjustable mounting member so that the frame can be selectively spaced relative to the user's head.
