ABSTRACT:
The present application describes protective eyewear having a unitary brow bar with temples and flexible molded hinges. The temples may be adjusted in length. The frame includes integrally molded flexible hinges which allow the temples to collapse. A unitary spherical lens is selectively attached to the frame and can be adapted to wrap around the forehead of the wearer's temples and include a nose bridge for supporting the lens on the wearer's nose. A stabilizing strip may be used to hold the frame and lens in place when the eyewear is assembled.
