An eyewear assembly comprises a primary frame assembly 100 having an outer periphery and a primary lens holder 102. At least one primary lens 106 is carried by the primary lens holder. One of a pair of arms 108 extends from a hinge 110 at each outer periphery of the primary frame assembly. An auxiliary frame assembly 200 has an outer periphery with auxiliary extensions 208 and an auxiliary lens holder 202. At least one auxiliary lens 206 is carried by the auxiliary lens holder, wherein the auxiliary frame assembly is removably secured to the primary frame assembly between the hinges and arms, so that the auxiliary lens is maintained between the primary lens and an eye of the wearer and the forward aspect of the primary assembly is undisturbed.
