Abstract:     A removable sunglass assembly to be attached to a conventional eyeglass assembly having lenses, a lens frame, and bow members extending aft from the frame. The preferred embodiment of the removable sunglass assembly includes a one-piece lens member having side support members with the lens member serving as the frame, side support members, and a top support member. The resiliency of the one-piece arcuate lens member provides a clamping force by which the removable sunglass assembly can be attached to the conventional eyeglass assembly. The side support members locate and attach the removable sunglass assembly to the bow members of the conventional eyeglass assembly while a top support member locates the removable sunglass assembly to the top of the conventional eyeglass assembly. Reliable securing elements are provided by resilience of the material used to construct the arcuate lens member and the high-friction, resilient, and anti-skid material used to construct the side support members. A second embodiment of the removable sunglass assembly provides a main top support member achieving the function of the arcuate lens member as noted above.
