An eyeglass protective device, comprising a body portion with an edge. The edge defines an opening through which a pair of eyeglasses may be inserted into the body portion. The body portion protects the eyeglass lenses. An eyeglass bow is accessible when the eyeglasses are in the body portion and may be used to hang the eyeglasses. The body portion is formed from a cloth-like material, is stretchable, is adapted to snugly fit around said eyeglasses, and is adapted for cleaning eyeglass lenses. The body portion has a bow aperture in a predetermined position, wherein an eyeglass bow may extend through the bow aperture. The device may be used for other personal items such as cell phones.

A protective eyeglasses system, comprising eyeglasses and a cover, the eyeglasses including a pair of connected lenses and a pair of bows connected to the lenses, the cover including a body portion with an edge, said edge defining an ingress/egress opening which is centrally disposed in said body portion, and which is adapted for insertion and removal of eyeglasses relative to an interior pouch defined by the body portion, the protective device further consisting of a bow aperture which is disposed in said body portion at an end thereof adjacent the ingress/egress opening, and which is adapted for complete extension therethrough of the bow of the eyeglasses to the exterior of the body portion, while the remainder of the eyeglasses are disposed in the interior pouch, whereby said body portion protects the eyeglasses and whereby an entire bow of the eyeglasses is accessible on the exterior of the body portion for hanging the eyeglasses and whereby the body portion protects the eyeglasses lens and one bow.
A flexible, portable, protective device for eyeglasses having a pair of lenses and a pair of bows, comprising:
- (a) a body portion constructed of a stretchable, cloth-like material configured in a pouch configuration, said pouch body portion being constructed of a single, unitary piece of material adapted to wrap around eyeglasses and having an interior pouch and an exterior surface, the material having a single circumferential edge defining a single ingress/egress opening in said pouch adapted for insertion and removal of the eyeglasses into and from interior of the body portion, the body portion having a substantially oval configuration with a lengthwise dimension with opposing end portions and a widthwise dimension which is relatively less than said lengthwise dimension, said ingress/egress opening being centrally disposed with respect to said lengthwise and widthwise dimensions of said body portion and having a predetermined area;
- (b) an elastic band disposed about said single edge for permitting increasing the diameter of said ingress/egress opening for insertion of the eyeglasses into the pouch interior and for reducing the diameter of the ingress/egress opening after insertion;
- and
- (c) a single bow aperture disposed in a predetermined position in said body portion proximate one end portion of said body portion, said bow aperture having a predetermined area which is substantially less than said predetermined area of said ingress/egress opening such that only the bow can extend through it, adapted so that, when the glasses are disposed in said body portion interior, one said eyeglass bow extends through said bow aperture to the exterior of the body portion, while the remainder of the eyeglasses are disposed in the interior pouch, whereby said body portion protects the eyeglass lenses and wherein the extended bow of the eyeglasses are accessible and wherein said extended bow may be used to hang the eyeglasses on an external surface.
