The goggles of the invention utilize a substantially rigid frame with separate top and bottom individually rotatable elements, namely an upper browbar and a lower nosepiece, that firmly capture the lens from above and below. The lens is further secured to the frame by projections on each of the browbar and nosepiece which fit through apertures in the lens. At the top, a post which projects forwardly from the frame is received in the well of the browbar by snap-fit engagement. At the bottom, a prong on the rotatable nosepiece passes through a bottom aperture of the lens and is received in a recess of a bottom portion of the frame by snap-fit engagement. The apertures and cooperating projections are preferably located along the center of a one-piece lens. Thus, the rotatable browbar and nosepiece capture the lens top and bottom by edgewise compression and hold the lens front-to-back.

The present invention encompasses a solid dose delivery vehicle for ballistic administration of a bioactive material to subcutaneous and intradermal tissue, the delivery vehicle being sized and shaped for penetrating the epidermis. The delivery vehicle further comprises a stabilizing polyol glass loaded with the bioactive material and capable of releasing the bioactive material in situ. The present invention further includes methods of making and using the solid dose delivery vehicle of the invention.

A one-piece integrally-formed goggle includes as components thereof two lenses, two frame members (each frame member mounting a respective one of said lenses and having a proximal end and a distal end), a bridge connecting the proximal ends of the frame members, and a strap connecting the distal ends of the frame members. The components are flexible, and the goggle is integrally formed in a molding operation.

An eye shield attachment can be used in combination with a safety helmet. The helmet has a front brim continuous with a rim extending along each opposite side of the safety helmet adjacent to a pair of rim slots in the rim of the safety helmet. The eye shield attachment has a lens and a right and a left structure. Each of the right and left structures has (a) a side frame adapted to be suspended below the rim and to extend toward the front brim, and (b) at least one tong adapted to be removably and dependently attached from below to a corresponding one of the rim slots in the helmet for supporting the side frame. The lens is attached distally between the right and the left structures and can pivot under the front brim between a lowered and a raised position and still remain subjacent to the front brim. The right and left structures are adjustable to provide an adjustable orientation of the lens while in the lowered position.

An eyeglasses apparatus and transformation system thereof, facilitating quick and easy convertibility of the left and right traditionally folding temples into an adjustable headband; thereby making the light-weight eyeglasses much more suited to dynamic activities such as jogging, skiing, and cycling for example. The user of this novel eyeware can advantageously move between more sedentary situations, where the extreme appearance of eye-goggles would appear very out of place;—yet by manually releasing an inconspicuously integrated pair of bifurcated retention-latches located immediately aftward of both temple-hinges, the temples can be instantly detatched and readily interchanged with a headband employing similar slide-in bayonet-type retention-latches. The disclosure identifies a particularly critical human-factors problem addressed by the uniquely configured finger operated opposed latches; plus, the notion of my slim-lined detatchable-temples, enables a host of optional companion accessory temple embodiments, facilitating a miniature radio, cell-phone, or digital-camera;—conveniences for the person on the go!
