ABSTRACT:
An eyeglass support system, where, when worn, lenses (55a unseen and 56a) and frame (59a) are lifted onto a wearer's nose by leveraging the rearward ends of sidepieces (47a unseen and 48a) under the lower rear slopes of the wearer's ears. The weight of the lenses plus frame is slightly forward of where the eyeglasses' nosepiece (46c) rests on the wearer's nose. The two sidepieces are mounted to the outside edges of the eyeglasses. The free ends of the sidepieces have ear-rests (51a and unseen 52a), which rest under the lower rear slopes of the wearer's ears. The side pieces supported under the ears, leverage the weight of the glasses up on the nose. The ear-rests hold the nosepiece to the nose at a desired position. This hold is secure because the slopes of the nose and lower rear ears are somewhat parallel.
