## Abstract

A clip holder for eyeglasses, comprising a holding assembly comprising a wall. Protruding from the wall are first and second lateral walls having a ridge. Extending from the first and second lateral walls and the ridge is a retaining wall having a front wall. The retaining wall and the front wall merge together and terminate at a top wall. The holding assembly further comprises a bracket that extends from the wall. The ridge and the retaining wall have a cooperative shape and dimension to securely suspend eyeglasses. A swivel assembly comprises a hinge and a base wall. A clip assembly has a base wall and a concave wall. The clip assembly is mounted onto the bushing. The clip assembly is mounted onto a car visor, whereby a sufficient force is placed onto the clip assembly to cause the car visor to squeeze in between the ledge and a base wall.
