## Abstract

A lens device includes a frame, at least one lens and two fasteners. The frame has at least a lens recess. The lens is embedded in the lens recess, and has an indentation located at an edge of the lens. The fasteners are disposed pivotally to the opposite sides of the frame, respectively, and each have an inner surface, a supporting surface and a hook portion. The inner surface adjoins the supporting surface. The hook portion protrudes from the inner surface. When the fastener rotates so that the hook portion enters into the indentation of the lens, the supporting surface of the fastener is disposed against a side of the indentation.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A lens device, comprising:
a frame comprising at least a lens recess, opposite sides, and an inner and an outer side;
at least a lens embedded in the lens recess, and having an indentation located at an edge of the lens; and
two fasteners disposed pivotally to the opposite sides of the frame and on the inner side of the frame, respectively and each having an inner surface, a supporting surface and a hook portion, wherein the inner surface adjoins the supporting surface, the hook portion protrudes from the inner surface, and when the fastener rotates so that the hook portion enters into the indentation of the lens, the supporting surface of the fastener is disposed against a side of the indentation.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The lens device as recited in claim 1, wherein the frame has two symmetrically disposed lens recesses, and the lens device has two lenses which are respectively embedded in the lens recesses.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The lens device as recited in claim 1, wherein the inner surface and the supporting surface form an included angle that is between 60° and 120°.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The lens device as recited in claim 1, wherein the frame further has an against surface adjacent to the lens recess, the against surface and the first side of the lens recess are configured with a height difference, and when the hook portion is disposed in the indentation of the lens, the inner surface of the fastener is against the against surface.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The lens device as recited in claim 4, wherein the frame further includes a locking portion, which connects the against surface and the first side and locks the hook portion.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The lens device as recited in claim 1, further comprising:
two temples disposed pivotally to the opposite sides of the frame, respectively.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The lens device as recited in claim 6, wherein the fastener and the temple are disposed pivotally to the frame by the same axle.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The lens device as recited in claim 1, wherein a first side and second side of the lens recess form a visible zone, and the side of the indentation of the lens and an edge of the visible zone are evened.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The lens device as recited in claim 1, which is sunglasses, working goggles, nearsighted eyeglasses, farsighted spectacles, presbyopia eyeglasses or snow goggles.
