FOLDABLE GLASSES WITH MAGNIFIER

摘要

A pair of foldable eyeglasses may have a number of hinged connections allowing for the folding of the individual components in a number of ways. The eyeglasses may also be folded into a magnifier. The eyeglasses may also be folded up entirely for transport or storage purposes. The eyeglasses have lenses with a frame and temple pieces extending from the frame. When folded, the eyeglasses take advantage of connectors on each the outer edge of the frame and the outer edge of the temple pieces. These connectors permit the eyeglasses to be folded into the magnifier form, as well as provide stability and protection when folded. In other embodiments, magnets or similar connection mechanisms are used to hold the eyeglasses in a storage or magnifying position(s).
