half-rim
Glasses with lower
Half-rim describes eyeglasses where the frame holds only the top edge of each lens, leaving the bottom edge exposed.
The lenses are typically secured by a thin nylon cord running along the lower rim.
Half-rim glasses offer a lighter, less obtrusive look than full frames: His half-rim reading glasses sat low on his nose.
