Abstract

See full text

A folding frame for eyeglasses, the frame being structured to fold into a W-shape and thereby, dispose a frame front left half in parallel with a frame front right half, both left and right halves being disposed between respective left and right temple pieces. A first catch holds the left and right halves in parallel at a stored configuration, and a second catch holds the temple pieces in parallel at the stored configuration. An enlarged grip area is sometimes provided in at least one temple piece to facilitate one-handed orienting of the fully-deployed frame in registration on a user's head. Certain embodiments are configured to permit a user to cause a one-handed release and subsequent automatic frame deployment from a stored configuration to a first configuration wherein the frame front left and right halves are disposed in a common plane, and the temple pieces are disposed normal to that plane.
