Lens assemblies

Optical systems and lens assemblies suitable for use with, for example, AR applications on portable electronic devices, including wearable devices such as electronic eyewear. The lens assembly supports a single lens or multiple lenses. The lens assembly includes a lens and a flange that defines a recess for receiving an adhesive. When the lens is placed on the flange, the adhesive secures the lens to the flange. In some implementations, the lens includes a band or strip of paint or other indicia applied along the perimeter of the lens to inhibit visibility of any excess adhesive. A lens assembly that supports both a front and rear lens is particularly useful for presenting AR experiences.

The pile head is provided with a fixing column and a positioning column which are matched with the fixing hole and the positioning hole respectively. The assembling holes, the fixing holes and the positioning holes are connected through communicating grooves, and the width of the communicating grooves is smaller than the diameter of the fixing columns. The diameter of the locking disc is larger than that of the fixing hole and smaller than or equal to that of the assembling hole. During assembling, the locking disc and the fixing column are installed from the assembling hole, the positioning column is installed from the fixing hole, the pile head is pulled, and the component is fixed in place through the communicating groove. The assembly process is simplified, the assembly efficiency is improved, and the structural stability of the glasses is ensured.

Invisible edge lens

There is provided a lens for use in frame-less spectacles, the lens body comprising an essentially flat angled peripheral edge joining inner and outer peripheral rims; the angled peripheral rim having an internal surface inside the lens body and an external surface defining an outside of the lens body. A junction between the angled peripheral edge and the inner lens surface forms a cleanly machined vertex at the inner peripheral rim. A junction of the angled peripheral edge and the outer lens surface forms a vertex sufficiently radiused to remove a sharp edge at the outer peripheral rim. An invisible zone is created between the lines of sight P that pass the inner peripheral rim, and the lines of sight P1 refracted at the peripheral rim through the lens. In use, the internal surface and external surface of the angled peripheral edge of the lens body and the outer peripheral rim are within the invisible zone and are therefore not visible to the user.
