Abstract
A device is adapted for positioning or mounting onto a surface, for holding eyewear or eyewear lenses in a substantially upright or nearly vertical position. The eyewear holder has a base member beneath an elongated bridge supporting member. The bridge supporting member can have a top surface configured for balancing the eyewear in the upright position and for restricting backward and downward movements of the eyewear. The base member can support a front retaining wall for restricting forward movement of the balanced eyewear; it can support a back retaining wall for restricting backward movement of the balanced eyewear. The retaining walls can have lateral walls that restrict sideward movement of the eyewear. In embodiments having both front and back retaining walls, they can define a slot transverse to the bridge supporting member, the slot for holding the eyewear and for minimizing forward, backward, and rotational movement of the eyewear.
