Abstract
A custom-fitted economical eyeware frame constructed at the site of dispensing from a minimum inventory of parts includes lenses of predetermined size and power encompassed by appropriate eye wires, and a bridge assembly, temple end pieces and temple ear stems. Upon selection of an appropriate bridge assembly, any, or all, of the remaining parts may be individually adjusted to custom fit the individual's interpupillary distance requirement. The construction of the eyeglass frame may be readily accomplished by an eyewear professional at any location.
