Frameless eyeglasses, the frameless eyeglasses defining substantially opposed eyeglasses lateral sides, the frameless eyeglasses comprising:
- a pair of lenses provided in a substantially side-by-side relationship relative to each other between the eyeglasses lateral sides, each one of the lenses defining a lens front surface and an opposed lens rear surface, each one of the lenses defining an inner mounting aperture and an outer mounting aperture extending therethrough between the lens front and rear surfaces, the outer mounting apertures being provided at the eyeglasses lateral sides, and the inner mounting apertures being provided between the outer mounting apertures;
- a bridge extending between the lenses and mounted to the inner mounting apertures;
- a pair of side arms;
- and
- a pair of side arm connectors each mounted each to a respective one of the outer mounting apertures, each of the side arms being mounted to a respective one of the side arm connectors;
- wherein the side arm connectors or the bridge or both the bridge and the side arm connectors are made of a single unitary piece of folded metal.
A frameless eyeglasses components kit for assembling eyeglasses defining substantially opposed eyeglasses lateral sides using a pair of lenses, wherein with the lenses provided in a substantially side-by-side relationship relative to each other between the eyeglasses lateral sides, each one of the lenses defines a lens front surface and an opposed lens rear surface, each one of the lenses defining an inner mounting aperture and an outer mounting aperture extending therethrough between the lens front and rear surfaces, the outer mounting apertures being provided at the eyeglasses lateral sides, and the inner mounting apertures being provided between the outer mounting apertures, the frameless eyeglasses components kit comprising:
- a bridge mountable to both inner mounting apertures;
- a pair of side arms;
- and
- a pair of side arm connectors each mountable to a respective one of the outer mounting aperture, each of the side arms being mountable to a respective one of the side arm connectors;
- wherein at least one of the side arm connectors and the bridge is made of a single unitary piece of folded metal.
