20100085533FLOATING LENS MOUNTING SYSTEM - Various embodiments of an eyeglass and eyeglass system are provided that can maintain the geometric and optical quality of a lens supported by the eyeglass. The eyeglass can comprise a frame, a support member carried by the frame, and a lens mounting area or groove extending at least partially along at least one of the frame and the support member. The support member can be pivoted, moved, or deflected relative to the frame between a retaining position and an open position. In the open position, the lens can be seated within the lens mounting area. In the retaining position, the support member and the frame retain the lens without exerting deformative forces on the lens. Accordingly, the as-molded geometric and optical qualities of the lens can be preserved.04-08-2010
20110199680EYEWEAR WITH THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIEWING CAPABILITY - Eyewear having three-dimensional (3D) viewing capability is disclosed. The 3D eyewear can include eyeglasses and an eyewear attachment configured to attach to the eyeglasses. The eyeglasses can have lens elements that include linear polarizers, and can be worn by the user without the eyewear attachment during everyday use. The eyewear attachment can include auxiliary lens elements that include quarter-wave plates oriented such that auxiliary lens elements of the eyewear attachment and the lens elements of the eyeglasses cooperate to function as circular polarizers. One lens pair can function as a circular polarizer configured to filter out right-handed circularly polarized light, and the other lens pair can function as a circular polarizer configured to filter out left-handed circularly polarized light. Thus, when the eyeglasses are worn with the eyewear attachment attached thereto, they can function as 3D eyewear to present right-eye and left-eye images, which are displayed using oppositely oriented circularly polarized light, to the respective right or left eye of the wearer. In some embodiments, the auxiliary lens elements can removably attach directly to the lens elements of the eyeglasses.08-18-2011
20110205626LENSES FOR 3D EYEWEAR - Eyewear for viewing three-dimensional (3D) images is disclosed. In some embodiments, the eyewear can include lenses that include circularly polarizing filters. The right lens can block light that is circularly polarized in a first direction, and the left lens can block light that is circularly polarized in a second, opposite direction. The circularly polarizing filters can be attached to a surface (e.g., the front surface) of a lens body using an adhesive or by lamination. The lenses can have one or more surfaces that conform to the surface of a sphere, a cylinder, or another geometric shape. In some embodiments, the surface of the lens to which the circularly polarizing filter is applied is cylindrical. In some embodiments, the lenses can have a tapered thickness to provide for optical correction of the lenses.08-25-2011
20110225709EYEWEAR WITH INTERCHANGEABLE LENS MECHANISM - Eyewear, such as a goggle, is provided that can include an anterior module (such as a lens support) and an interchangeable posterior module (such as a faceplate). The anterior module can be adapted to support at least one lens in a wearer's field of view. The posterior module can be adapted to fit against a contour of the wearer's face and can be selectively interchangeable with the anterior module to modify at least one physical characteristic of the eyewear. In some embodiments, the anterior and posterior modules can be coupled by a suspension assembly in order to allow articulation of the posterior module relative to the anterior module for evenly distributing forces against the wearer's face. Further, the anterior module can be rigid for maintaining the lens in an optically-desirable orientation. Furthermore, the goggle can comprise an interchangeable lens mechanism to facilitate interchanging of lenses in the goggle.09-22-2011
20110225711EYEWEAR WITH RIGID LENS SUPPORT - Eyewear, such as a goggle, is provided that can include an anterior module (such as a lens support) and an interchangeable posterior module (such as a faceplate). The anterior module can be adapted to support at least one lens in a wearer's field of view. The posterior module can be adapted to fit against a contour of the wearer's face and can be selectively interchangeable with the anterior module to modify at least one physical characteristic of the eyewear. In some embodiments, the anterior and posterior modules can be coupled by a suspension assembly in order to allow articulation of the posterior module relative to the anterior module for evenly distributing forces against the wearer's face. Further, the anterior module can be rigid for maintaining the lens in an optically-desirable orientation. Furthermore, the goggle can comprise an interchangeable lens mechanism to facilitate interchanging of lenses in the goggle.09-22-2011
20110255051EYEWEAR WITH CHROMA ENHANCEMENT - Some embodiments provide a lens including a lens body and an optical filter configured to attenuate visible light in a plurality of spectral bands. Each of the plurality of spectral bands can include an absorptance peak with a spectral bandwidth, a maximum absorptance, and an integrated absorptance peak area within the spectral bandwidth. An attenuation factor obtained by dividing the integrated absorptance peak area within the spectral bandwidth by the spectral bandwidth of the absorptance peak can be greater than or equal to about 0.8 for the absorptance peak in each of the plurality of spectral bands.10-20-2011
20110299026FLOATING LENS MOUNTING SYSTEM - Various embodiments of an eyeglass and eyeglass system are provided that can maintain the geometric and optical quality of a lens supported by the eyeglass. The eyeglass can comprise a frame, a support member carried by the frame, and a lens mounting area or groove extending at least partially along at least one of the frame and the support member. The support member can be pivoted, moved, or deflected relative to the frame between a retaining position and an open position. In the open position, the lens can be seated within the lens mounting area. In the retaining position, the support member and the frame retain the lens without exerting deformative forces on the lens. Accordingly, the as-molded geometric and optical qualities of the lens can be preserved.12-08-2011
20120137414PEEL-AWAY MEMBRANE STACK FOR POSTERIOR SURFACE OF A LENS - The present invention relates generally to anti-fogging systems used in eyewear, and more particularly to an eyewear system with a stack of peel away membranes positioned on the posterior surface of a goggle lens.06-07-2012
20130141693EYEWEAR WITH CHROMA ENHANCEMENT - Some embodiments provide a lens including a lens body and an optical filter configured to attenuate visible light in certain spectral bands. At least some of the spectral bands can include spectral features that tend to substantially increase the colorfulness, clarity, and/or vividness of a scene. In certain embodiments, eyewear incorporates an optical filter that enhances chroma within one or more spectral bands. In some embodiments, a wearer of the eyewear can perceive the increase in chroma when viewing at least certain types of scenes.06-06-2013
20130271723FLOATING LENS MOUNTING SYSTEM - Various embodiments of an eyeglass and eyeglass system are provided that can maintain the geometric and optical quality of a lens supported by the eyeglass.
