First Claim:
Show all 6 claims |
I claim:
1. In a kit for modifying a pair of spectacles to increase their capacity to adhere to the wearer and wherein said spectacles (S) already embody a frame (F) including two rims (R) in which two lenses are framed, a bridge (B) connecting said rims to form oval upwardly converging nose engaging areas (N), a pair of temples (T) hinged rearwardly from said frame ends to extend over the ears and inwardly to press oval areas (H) against temporal portions of the head, said kit comprising:
- four like circular patches of thin flexible molded sheet plastic, the diameter of said patches permitting each of said oval spectacle pressure areas (N) and (H) to fit lengthwide neatly diametrically within and crosswise of any one of said patches;
- multiple, sharply narrow edged, parallel, shallow, widely spaced ridges formed integrally on the upper face of each of said patches;
- a thin coating of pressure adhesive covering the bottom of each patch; and
- a neutral temporary non-adherent paper back covering said pressure adhesive coating on each patch,
- each patch being optionally adapted to overlie any one of said spectacle pressure areas and be rotated to properly orient its ridges relative to said area for marking the outline of the latter on said patch for trimming the borders of said patch prior to removing said paper backing and sticking the trimmed and oriented patch to its area.
