The invention, the feeler blade or finger, at least when located in a temple zone of the rim of the frame, points obliquely towards the rim of the frame and towards its rear side that is to be placed facing the eyes of a wearer, such that its feeler axis or its feeler plane forms a non-zero feeler angle (A) with a plane orthogonal to the axis of rotation of the feeler.
