Abstract

An apparatus for adhesively bonding a spectacle lens to connecting elements of a bridge and a lug of the spectacles is disclosed. The apparatus includes a frame and a holding device for holding the lens. The holding device includes a cylindrical holding pin designed to centrally hold the lens such that a front side of the lens extends substantially perpendicularly to an axis of the cylindrical holding pin. At the frame, two straight supporting strips extend in parallel to each other at a plane perpendicular to the pin axis and are equally spaced apart from the pin axis. The two supporting strips are arranged such that the front side of the lens held by the holding pin faces the supporting strips and one of the connecting elements is adapted to be clamped between the front side of the lens and each of the supporting strips.
