Abstract
An eyeglass frame has a bridge portion and nose pad assembly. The nose pad assembly included a support member in the shape of an elongate bar fixed to a rear surface of the bridge portion. The bar has arms extending from either end thereof, away from the bar in a rearward direction, the bar and arms being of relatively rigid construction, while the arms are able to flex rotationally about a junction point with the bar in response to pressure applied to the arms, while providing a biasing force against said pressure. The nose pad is made of flexible material, and is attached at either lateral edge thereof to a free end of a respective arm of the support member.
