wraparounds

Side-shielding eye protection

Wraparounds are things that wrap around something else, whether eyeglasses with curved lenses that extend toward the temples, skirts or dresses that fold across the body and tie at the waist, or text that continues from the end of one line to the beginning of the next.

In publishing and retail, a wraparound is a band or cover that encircles a product.

The term appears frequently in computing to describe values or displays that cycle back to the beginning after reaching an endpoint.
