A eyeglasses retaining device for headware, having a unitary fastener for the headware and the eyeglasses is described. The retaining device may optionally have designs or advertising or other messages on a portion visible to others.
Eyeglasses Claims
What is claimed is:
1. A retaining device to retain eyeglasses to a piece of headwear, said retaining device comprising: a disk-shaped member, said disk-shaped member having an substantially convex exterior surface and a substantially concave interior surface; and, at least one clamping member disposed on said disk-shaped member and having a surface positioned to bear against said substantially concave interior surface when an earpiece of said eyeglasses is positioned between said clamping member and said substantially concave interior surface, said surface of said clamping member having a convex radius of curvature.
Eyeglasses are as old as the Renaissance, but even now we still need trained professionals to fit them, it’s a nightmare for developing countries. In sub-Saharan Africa, for example, there’s only one optometrist for around 1 million people. There optmetrists and eye doctors are badly needly to check eyeglasses pescription for the local people. That’s no problem for the Western world, such as USA, which has around one optometrist for roughly every 10,000 people. People in USA can get their glasses prescription very quickly.
So I think we should do something for the people there, we can gather our unwanted eyeglasses, recheck the used glasses and sent them to the poor people. If we can collect a lot of eyeglasses, we also can sent some optometrist work there so that the people there can get more correct prescription glassses.
A microphone, transmitter, speaker, receiver, and power source, all mounted to an eyeglasses frame, for sending and receiving signals wirelessly to and from a remote cell phone or other electronic device. The microphone and the transmitter can be mounted to extension arms that can be extended, pivoted, or otherwise moved to a position for use, and then moved to a stored position when not in use. Alternatively, the microphone, transmitter, speaker, receiver, and power source, can be mounted onto a clip-on or other attachment member that mounts onto a conventional eyeglasses frame, or to a hat or other article worn on the head.
Lowery, 38, of Chicago told Wisconsin officials last weekend that he stealed $45,000 worth of high quality designer eyeglasses from suburban Milwaukee stores.
In 1996, Chicago police arrested Lowery for stealing designer eyeglass frames from seven stores over four months. He served prison time after pleading guilty to six counts of aggravated robbery. After his release, he was arrested yet again after stealing more fancy designer eyeglasses frames, according to court records.

The invention is directed to a reinforced nose bridge structure, eyeglasses employing the reinforced nose bridge structure, and methods of making reinforced nose bridge structures and eyeglasses. A reinforced nose bridge structure includes an elongated body and a wire extending along the body for most of its length. The ends of the wire project from the body to form a pair of spaced-apart nose pad supports. Respective nose pads are mounted at the ends of the wire forming the nose pad supports. The nose bridge may be attached directly to eyeglass lenses or to complete or partial frames for the lenses.

Eyeglasses comprising a primary lens frame having a first pair of lens holders separated by a bridge portion having a major magnetic member disposed therein, said major magnetic member disposed within the bridge portion on a rear side of the bridge portion such that a surface of the major magnetic member is exposed and faces rearward. The eyeglasses further include an auxiliary frame having a second pair of lens holders separated by a bridge portion formed to include a protruding grip extension that extends perpendicularly outward from the auxiliary frame. The grip extension includes an upward lip with a minor magnetic member disposed therein such that a surface of the minor magnet member is exposed and faces forward. The auxiliary frame is coupled to the primary lens frame from the bottom such that the grip extension extends under the bridge portion in the primary lens frame and the upward lip engages the bridge portion of the primary lens frame on the rear side of the bridge, said major and minor magnetic members magnetically coupling together, thereby further securing the auxiliary frame to the primary lens frame.

The Los Gatos Lions Club is collecting used eyeglasses it can recycle and give to needy people around the world.
The glasses collected are taken to a warehouse in Vallejo where they are cleaned and machine-graded by prescription. The glasses are then sent with Lions Club members on eyeglass missions, where volunteer eye doctors perform exams. The Lions then read the doctors’ prescriptions and match them up with eyeglasses from the inventory they have brought along.
If you have any used eyeglasses, you can send them to Lions Club, the used eyeglasses is useless for you, but they are very useful for others.
At the same time, I hope the eyeglasses shop can offer their out-of-data eyeglasses to the poor people, we shoud help each other, let this world becomes more beautiful.
