spectacle frames
Lens-holding structure
Spectacle frames are the structural part of eyeglasses that hold the lenses in place—the rims, temples, and bridge, minus the glass itself.
The term appears in optical shops and insurance forms: The spectacle frames are covered, but lenses cost extra.
Most people just say frames.
