I break my glasses frames a lot, they are currently almost half made of glue and varying adhesion products. I designed these so I could just print out new frames or frame pieces whenever I needed to, they are shaped so I can simply pop in my current lenses. These are a work in progress, and now that I have a CAD model of my own glasses I can add space for surface mount electronics, wires, and such.
To make them I taped my current frames to my screen zoomed to a 1:1 ratio, and carefully made a spline of the lens perimeter dimension, then did a bunch of fine tuning with my calipers and the dots consisting of the spline. All the other splines were done visually to my taste, as long as the lens dimensions are good the rest of the glasses can be any shape.
I haven't printed these out yet, but when I do this is my plan. I am going to use a hot air reflow station to heat up the nose bridge and lens areas, then bend them to the same curvature of my current frames by just holding the
