ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved viewing device is provided herein. The viewing device includes a spectacle frame including a pair of lens-holding members connected by a bridge member, and a pair of side-supporting arms. The side-supporting arms each includes a first end connected to one of the lens-holding members, and a second end including an ear-engagement portion. Means are provided for transmitting light including a fiber-optic bundle disposed in at least one of the side-supporting arms, the fiber-optic bundle extending axially between the first and second ends. The fiber- optic bundle includes a first optical face adjacent the first end of the side-supporting arm for projecting light within the viewing area between the spectacle frame and the object to be viewed, and a second optical face adjacent the second end of the side-supporting arm. Connecting means are provided for connecting the second optical face of the fiber-optic bundle to a source of light for transmitting light through the fiber-optic bundle to the first optical face. This invention thus provides eye glasses with illuminating means that could be worn and used generally, as well as in those instances when the illumination feature would be desirable. In addi- tion, it provides eye glasses having illumination means which are not bulky, and which may be singly and inexpensively constructed.
