Abstract:     A spectacle combination which allows the wearer of eye glasses to change a single pair of glasses to match any individual fashion or mood. The basic spectacle unit is a combination of two lens, two lens rims, two temple members and a nose bridge. To complete the combination there are a number of attachable pairs of one-piece lens rim covers of various colors, designs, shapes and materials. The easily slid on lens rim covers are securely held in position by a lip, friction tape, magnetic strips or a snap-on type of friction fitting arrangement. Tinted lens may be inserted in the individual pairs of lens rim covers in order to transform normal spectacles into sunglasses. In addition, the lens rim covers may be designed to affect a change in the shape of the actual lens itself from, for instance, the standard elliptical shape to a more high fashion octagonal square or rectangular shape.
