  • Publication number: 20130293959
    Abstract: The embodiments of the Lens Protector are comprised of two large eyepiece lens covers, two small objective lens covers, and a flat connective lanyard. The embodiments of the optical protection device, the larger end covers are placed over the eye optical lenses and the smaller end covers are placed over the objective lenses to protect the eye lenses and objective lenses from damage due to light or damage due to foreign objects being deposited on the lens glass. The lanyard with the X-shaped connection allows the end covers to be maintained in place relative to each other and also prevents the end covers from being entangled thereby allowing ease of replacement of the end covers onto the optical lenses when the optical device is to be stored or taken out of application use.
