1. An eyewear apparatus comprising:
one or more insert chassis, each configured to accommodate a chassis insert frame of various shapes and sizes, wherein the chassis insert frame is configured to enclose and secure a right lens and a left lens, wherein the chassis insert frame comprises:
a nose bridge connecting right and left halves of the chassis insert frame, with a tapered shape between the right and left lenses to accommodate a human nose;chassis insert frame top right and top left parts, lying above the right and left lenses, respectively, the top right and top left parts joined by a top nose bridge part which constitutes the topmost portion of the nose bridge; andan outside right part coupled to the chassis insert frame top right part and having a right chassis insert notch or protrusion;an outside left part coupled to the chassis insert frame top left part and having a left chassis insert notch or protrusion; and a frame piece comprising:
right and left ear pieces;a front frame constructed of a first non-magnetic material, connected to the right and left ear pieces with right and left hinges, respectively, comprising a right and left temple portion and a nose bridge portion;wherein the front frame comprises a groove having an interior surface defined by the first non-magnetic material and having a size and shape to accommodate the top right, top left, and top nose bridge parts of the chassis insert frame in contact with the first non-magnetic material defining the interior surface of the groove;wherein the groove comprises a front portion and a rear portion of the front frame, the front portion being sized and shaped to cover a front portion of the top right, top left, and top nose bridge parts of the chassis insert frame, and the rear portion being sized and shaped to cover a rear portion of the top right, top left, and top nose bridge parts of the chassis insert frame;wherein the groove comprises, within and enclosed by the groove, a right frame protrusion or notch and a left frame protrusion or notch, each at a location such that it will engage with the right and left notches or protrusions of the chassis insert frame, respectively, when the top right, top left, and top nose bridge parts of the chassis insert frame are fully inserted into the groove, wherein the right and left frame protrusions or notches are protrusions if the right and left chassis insert notches or protrusions are notches, and the right and left frame protrusions or notches are notches if the right and left chassis insert notches or protrusion are protrusions; andwherein the chassis insert frame further comprises a chassis insert tab or cavity situated at the top nose bridge part, facing toward an inward direction (a direction that would be toward a wearer), and wherein the nose bridge portion of the front frame comprises a frame cavity or tab at a location such that will engage with the chassis insert tab or cavity, when the top right, top left, and top nose bridge parts of the chassis insert frame are fully inserted into the groove, wherein the chassis insert tab or cavity is a tab if the frame cavity or tab is a cavity, and the chassis insert tab or cavity is a cavity if the frame cavity or tab is a tab. |
