ABSTRACT:
The mirror attachment for eyeglasses is a lightweight rectangular mirror which is attached to the temple piece of a pair of eyeglasses by a hinged arm. The mirror may be folded to a closed position generally parallel to the temple piece when not in use and extended to a vertical plane parallel to and anterior to the plane of the eyeglass lens when in use. The hinged arm has a proximal portion and a distal portion which are articulated by a knuckle joint hinge. The proximal portion is attached to the temple piece by a hinged joint on a U-shaped clip which is secured to the temple piece by a set screw. The distal portion is attached to the mirror by a hinged joint on a similar U-shaped clip secured to the top of the mirror medially. Alternatively, the mirror attachment may be attached to the brim of a cap or a visor attached to an elastic headband worn under a cap.
