Attaching the Envision Glasses Frame

Attaching the Envision Glasses Frame

February 18, 2021

Get your Envision Glasses body out of the box (if you haven't already done so). After that, open the other smaller box where you will find the titanium frame. Attach the frame to the body by following the instructions below. These instructions can also be used for the Smith Optics frame.

These instructions can also be used for the Smith Optics frame, but, in that case, the right earpiece will have to first be detached in order for the Envision Glasses body to take its place. To detach the right earpiece of the Smith Optics frame, you can follow the instructions in the next page on how to detach the frame from the body, keeping in mind that the right earpiece of the Smith Optics frame serves as the Envision Glasses body, in that case. 

The image shows a black and white sketch of the frame, on the left, and the body, on the right, on a purple background. It highlights in green and with a bold, white arrow the point of connection of the two. On the frame, this point is found on the right extremity and it's small, with a circular shape. On the body, it is found roughly at the height of the user's temple, it's place on the top and it's also small, with a circular shape that matches that of the frame's.

Attaching the frame

Step 1: Take the frame and make sure it is in an unfolded position.

Step 2: Make sure that the body is also in a unfolded position. That means that the front of the body, where the camera and display are located, is folded out.

Step 3: With your left hand, take the frame and, with your right hand, take the body. While holding the body with your right hand, make sure your thumb is on the front part of the body and your index finger below, to prevent the body from folding in.

Step 4: Locate the metallic hinge button with your thumb on the top of the body.

Step 5: With your left hand, make sure to grab the end of the frame where you can feel a circular part. This is the circular piece that will fit on the hinge button of the body.

Step 6: Bring the circular piece of the frame on top of the button on the body. You can do this by keeping your left thumb on the circular part.

Step 7: Once the circular part is on top of the button, you will have to lock the frame by turning it clockwise while pressing on the circular part with your right thumb. This will allow you to rotate the frame to its position.

Step 8: You will hear a soft metallic click when the frame is attached to the body.

Step 9: That’s it! You can start wearing your Envision Glasses, or practice how to detach the frame with the help of the next guide.


Detaching the frame

Step 1: Take your Envision Glasses off your face and make sure they stay in a folded-out position. This means that the front of the body, where the camera and display are located, is folded out.

Step 2: Hold the frame with your left hand and the body with the right hand.

Step 3: While holding the body in your right hand, make sure your thumb is on the top part of the body, in the area before it curves to the front . Make sure your index finger is behind the part where the camera and glass plate are located.

Step 4: There is a button on the body around the area where your thumb and index are located. Press this button with your thumb.

Step 5: Now, with your left hand, rotate the frame towards you (or counter-clockwise). This will allow you to detach the frame from the body.

Step 6: To detach the frame, push down with your thumb on the connected piece of the frame and body, then push away with your index finger.


At first, the process of attaching and detaching the frames may seem a little complicated. Once you practice it a few times and get the hang of it, it gets pretty easy!

Smith Optics frames

One of the arms of the Smith Optics frame can be detached (similar to how you detach the titanium frame from the glasses through the hinge). The instructions above can therefore also be used for the Smith Optics frame, but, in that case, the right earpiece will have to first be detached in order for the Envision Glasses body to take its place. To detach the right earpiece of the Smith Optics frame, you can follow the instructions in the next page on how to detach the frame from the body, keeping in mind that the right earpiece of the Smith Optics frame serves as the Envision Glasses body, in that case.
