ABSTRACT:
An eye protection device adapted to be easily assembled and disassembled with a pair of eyeglasses to provide colored lenses for protecting the eyes of the wearer against sunlight and glare. The eye protecting device is specially constructed to permit it to be assembled with eyeglasses of the half-lens type wherein the wearer thereof may either look through the lenses of the eyeglasses or may look over the lenses. The colored lenses or shields of the eye protection unit are configured to cover not only the lenses of the eyeglasses but sufficient area thereabove so that, when the wearer looks over the eyeglass lenses to see objects at a distance, the eyes are protected from direct sunlight and glare. In one form, retaining means for the eye protecting unit extends inwardly from the right and left extremities thereof and is shaped to extend over and around the upper horizontal portion of the rim of the eyeglasses to hold the eye protection unit thereon. In another form, retaining means for the eye protection unit extends over and around the far extremities of the frame of the eyeglasses gripping or hanging on both the upper and side portions thereof.
