US Patent 6957890 Convertible eyeglasses

Eyeglasses are converted in appearance by a cover clip-on for part of the front portion of the frame of the eyeglasses. A set of eyewear combines the eyeglasses with the cover clip-on. The set may be enlarged by provision of a sunglasses clip-on and/or temple coverlets. A cover clip-on can mask the top and bottom eye rims of the eyeglasses or have a strip form, with top eye rim cover sections, possibly interconnected by a bridge. The strip is assembled with the eyeglasses mechanically and/or magnetically.
