Custom-Made Eyeglass-Holding Hook on a Snapback Cap to Prevent Nose-Pads From Directly Resting Upon the Nose

초록

The authors innovated a simple device that hooks the bridge of eyeglasses to a snapback cap (EHS) so that the nose-pads of glasses do not rest upon the nose. A snapback cap with 2 eyelets on the front panel is prepared. A fishing line or IV tubing is introduced through 2 eyelets and a loop is made inside of the cap. A paper clip is bent to make a J-shaped hook that holds the bridge of the glasses. A loop of line is connected through the J-hook and the length is adjusted to prevent the nosepads of glasses from directly resting on the nose. The eyeglass-holding hook on a snapback cap pulls the eyeglasses, and the direction of the vector can be adjusted through the eyelets on the front panel and the strap on the back. Our EHS is simple and cheap. It is considered that patients themselves can produce this device.
