Object retention system for eyeglasses

Abstract

A system for retaining a slender elongated object adjacent an upper surface of an eyeglass temple member worn by an eyeglass wearer includes an elongated attachment member for mounting on the eyeglass temple member and an object gripper integral with and upstanding from the attachment member and substantially coextensive with the attachment member for releasably engaging the elongated object and capturing it adjacent the head of the eyeglass wearer. The attachment member is engageably received on the eyeglass temple member and the object gripper is a planar member having a concavely curved surface facing the head of the eyeglass wearer. The attachment member is integral with the object gripper and, in one instance, fully encircles the eyeglass temple member and, is of elastic material enabling slidable reception onto the eyeglass temple member yet providing its firm retention on the eyeglass temple member when a desired position thereon is achieved.
