ABSTRACT:
A method for mounting safety shields onto eyeglass temples and a kit for carrying out that method. A temple of an eyeglass frame is placed in a channel forming part of a side shield thereafter, a screw is inserted into an opening formed in the side shield and into a member affixed to the temple to create a fastened fit between the temple and the channel which attaches the side shield to the temple. The side shield is placed in its operative position before the screw is inserted into the opening and the fastened fit results from the insertion of the screw into the opening and member which holds the side shield in its operative position. The kit includes a side shield having a longitudinally extending channel into which a longitudinally extending eyeglass temple may be inserted. The channel has an open lateral end through which the temple may be inserted and a supporting lateral end against which the temple may be supported. The side shield further includes an opening extending transversely to both the longitudinal direction and the supporting lateral wall. A screw is adapted to be inserted into the opening and the member so as to force the temple against the supporting end of the channel to create a fastened fit between the side shield and the temple when the temple is located in the channel. Alternatively, a fastener is placed into the transverse open lateral end in the channel of the side shield, to receive a screw which is a adapted to be inserted into the fastener to create a fastened fit and prevent the temple from moving longitudinally within the channel of the side shield.
