Just had my #glasses lens fall out thanks to a screw that keeps working loose.
Instead of having a special way that glasses have to be taken off that NOBODY EVER DOES, why not just make glasses that can take the forces they meet in the real world?

I get that the lens has to get into the frame hole. But
a. heat shrink fit
b. put screw on the bridge side
c. spot-welding
d. any kind of bistable clip arrangement
are just a few #engineering ideas that leap to mind. Heck, at least put the screw going in *from the top* so it doesn't fall onto the floor!
....the more I think about that clip idea the more I like it. This could be made *very* sleek to not only not fall apart but also trim down the corners. Like a hoop clamp, but with a clip instead of a screw.
