ABSTRACT:
A nose pad assembly is slidably mounted to an eyeglass frame by which a pair of multifocal lenses are held. The nose pad assembly includes a pair of oval nose pads within which elongated guide grooves are defined. Two pairs of upper and lower magnets are coaxially and fixedly mounted in the upper and lower ends of the respective nose pads. A pair of slides are slidably moved along the guide grooves and attached to a pair of pad arms of the eyeglass frame. The slides include a corresponding pair of slide magnets positioned within the respective guide grooves. The slide magnets are selectively attracted to the upper and lower magnets to hold the eyeglass frame in its upper and lower positions, respectively. A bridge member extends between the upper end of the nose pads. The bridge member is configured to resist a substantially vertical force which may be applied thereto when the eyeglass frame is moved between its upper and lower positions. The bridge member is free to flex in a substantially horizontal direction so that orientation of the nose pads can readily be adjusted.
