The present multi-purpose eyewear (100) uses a pliable frame (103) and nose bridge in cooperation with strap adjustment and quick release mechanisms (141, 142, 143) to enable multiple uses of the eyewear (100) and adjustment of the eyewear while in place on the head of the wearer. The wraparound frames (103) incorporate a sealant (105), such as a bonded gel filled rubber, around the lens periphery of the frame (103) to present a comfortable interface between the wearer's skin and the eyewear (100). The strap adjustment and quick release mechanisms (141, 142, 143) are simple to use and enable the eyewear (100) to be adjusted while in place on the head of the wearer to fit the wearer in a manner to create a water-tight/air-tight seal (fluid-tight seal) around the wearer's eyes in a manner to conform to the contours of the wearer's face and avoid irritation of the skin from prolonged use. The lenses (101, 102) that are used in the eyewear are capable of being manufactured to prescription specifications and can include sunlight protection. The multi-purpose eyewear (100) preferably also includes ear stems (301, 302) that are interchangeable with the strap (104) to provide eyewear of conventional appearance when used as eyeglasses and/or sunglasses. |

The safety eyewear includes a one-piece molded lens frame (12), and left and right temple bar assemblies (14). The one-piece lens frame (12) includes a brow bar portion (16), a central bridge portion (18), a nose piece portion (20), and left and right lens frame eyewires (22, 24) that cooperate with the brow bar (16) and bridge (16) to define left and right lens openings. An over-molded elastomeric material (60) is also used to provide soft bumpers (62) in the inner side of the brow bar (16) and a soft cushion (64) on the inner surfaces of the nose piece (20). The creative and selective use of the over-molded material (60) thus provides both decorative and aesthetic features while also providing functional cushioned areas. |

An eyewear assembly having flexible temple elements with counterweights is disclosed. The counterweights and flexible temples can serve several other purposes aside from the disclosed role of supporting eyewear on a wearer's face. Those purposes include ornamental elegance in design and facilitating a natural adjustability around unique personal features for position and comfort. The flexible temple elements provide mechanisms for transmitting electrical, mechanical and photonic power and or signals to the eyewear while the counterweights provide the source for said transmissions from a more convenient location. |

A method for assembly of an eyewear and an eyewear structure are provided to incorporate preferred properties into the eyewear. A lens is encircled by a rim element having the preferred properties thereby forming a lens unit which is removably attached to the eyewear structure. Therefore, the lens can be better retained within the eyewear structure. Such lens units can be made interchangeable one to another, and with a variety of individual properties such that replacement of the lens unit attached to the eyewear structure with a selected one of the interchangeable lens units, will change the properties of the eyewear as per user's preferences. |

An aspect includes a temple assembly that is configured to retain one or more lenses relative to a head of a user. The temple assembly may include a temple substrate and an insert. The temple substrate may be comprised of one or more polymers. The insert may be located at least partially within the temple substrate. The insert is configured to impose a spring force against the head of the user and is configured to allow at least a portion of the temple substrate to rotate axially about at least a portion of the insert such that the portion of the temple substrate deforms relative to the insert and at least partially independently of the insert. |

A construction for eyeglasses provides a frame with a first rim for securing a first fixed lens, a second rim for securing a second fixed lens, a first temple hinge for pivotally joining a first temple arm to the first rim, a second temple hinge for pivotally joining a second temple arm to the second rim, and a pair of double-knuckle hinges for joining pivotally joining a first selectable lens and a second selectable lens to the frame. The double knuckle hinges allow the first selectable lens and the second selectable lens to rotate 270 degrees, switching between a storage configuration and an active configuration. In the active configuration the selectable lenses overlap the fixed lenses in order to provide additional desirable properties. Thus the selectable lenses can be used in combination with the fixed lenses to act as bifocal glasses. |
