Another object of the present invention is to provide a pair of rimless spectacles of which lenses can be stably supported and elastically clipped at three points, in other words, one locking hole and two edge portions of the lens without either cutting a slot on edge portions thereof or installing a receiving metallic piece to hold edge portions thereof on the lenses supporting portion of a bridge and a bracket endpiece.
The further object of the present invention is to provide a pair of rimless spectacles which is easy to assemble in view of correction process where assuming that there is something wrong with the making position of either the bridge locking hole or endpiece locking hole to be opened in the lenses, it can be assembled in an acceptable form without any difficulty only by a little adjusting the interval in a parallel relation between a rim pad portion of the bridge or bracket endpiece and a free end portion thereof.
