Abstract

A eyeglass retainer/cover is an integral combination eyeglass pouch and a neck strap fabricated from a single strip of flexible and stretchable fabric. The invention can be used to either retain eyeglasses on the neck strap or the integral pocket be stretched over folded eyeglasses to act as a cover for protection, storage, and cleaning when not being utilized as a neck strap. The eyeglass retainer/cover is easily constructed and has a stylish appearance because the integral eyeglass pocket folds into itself when not in use.
