Abstract

See full text

Modular eyewear includes a frame and lens assemblies insertable into and removable from the frame which has a rim located between a bridge and each of two temples. Each rim includes a front face, a groove adjacent to the bridge, and an indentation adjacent to the temple. Attached along each of the groove and the indentation are frame magnets. The lens assemblies include a lens having a perimeter surrounding a body with front and rear surfaces. A tab is applied to and extends from the front surface of each lens at the perimeter. Magnetic couplings are attached along a first portion of the perimeter behind the tab and along a second portion of the perimeter, respectively. When the eyewear is assembled, the frame magnets magnetically attach to the corresponding magnetic couplings, and the tab is inserted into the indentation to fill the indentation flush with the frame front face.
