Abstract: |
Sunglasses or eyeglasses made of an elongated sheetlike member of a flexible transparent material having a memory sufficient to bias it to coil itself into a roll shape whenever untensioned. End portions are shaped to fit in the orbito-temporal fossae of the human head at a location just behind the zygomatic process. For a sunshade, the device may be inverted. For eyeglasses, the member is provided with opaque regions located in the path of vision of the wearer, and a plurality of apertures between about 0.025-0.036 inch in diameter are provided in these opaque regions in rows spaced-apart between 0.1 inch and 0.17 inch. Variations in the shape and form of the end portions as well as additional nose bridge anchors are utilized to provide stability and comfort for the wearer.
