ABSTRACT:
A facial hearing apparatus is disclosed which mounts onto any eyeglasses in order to impart warmth to the sinus regions of the eyeglass wearer's head to facilitate the establishment of a comfort zone of temperature about the face and upper body of the wearer affected by the sinuses. The facial heating apparatus mounts to the underside of the eyeglasses and includes a nosepiece and a resistive element that electrically connects to a power source in order to impart heat to the eyeglass wearer's head. The facial heating apparatus further includes a pad to provide a soft cushion against the wearer's face when the facial heating apparatus is worn. The facial heating apparatus eliminates the need for different pairs of heated glasses because it is removable and interchangeable among a variety of different types of eyeglasses.
