Abstract: The present invention describes spectacles of the type that remain securely in place without the need for a frame that has arms, providing the corresponding optical features required in each case and being able to be formed by a single, continuous element in the preferred embodiment thereof, or by a number of pieces, the securing thereof being achieved by means of a system for adaptation to the users anatomy based on the clip effect.

Abstract: Highly compact molded eyeglasses include a first lens portion and a second lens portion coupled via a bridge member. Each lens portion may be characterized by a reference surface and an adjustment surface. From one pair of eyeglasses to another, the reference surface exhibits a constant curvature. The curvature of an adjustment surface is designed relative to that of a reference surface to provide a lens portion having a particular dioptic power. The transition section may include a corrugation and/or a lip to secure the glasses to a wearer's nose. The bridge member acts as a flat spring coupling the lens portions. The bridge member includes an indentation segment joined by bends or curves to a first and a second arm segment. The bridge member's structure provides positional memory properties. The bridge member and the lens portions may be made from polycarbonate in an injection molding process.

Abstract: The make-up eyeglass frame is provided with an adjustable nose piece assembly for adjusting the eyeglasses to the nose and face of a wearer. The nose piece assembly is readily removable from a bracket secured between two lens receiving sections for replacement purposes or for storing in a flattened condition. A pair of temples are hingedly mounted to the lens receiving sections to be folded into a flattened condition.
