rimless
Lacking outer edges
Rimless describes eyeglasses or spectacles that lack a frame surrounding the lenses, which are instead held in place by the bridge and temple arms attached directly to the glass.
The style gives a minimalist, barely-there appearance.
More generally, rimless can describe any object—a cup, a wheel, a hat—that lacks the raised edge or border typically found on similar items.
