An eyeglass is provided for component weight without reducing the overall structural integrity of the eyeglass, and for allowing adjustability of the eyeglass to optimize optical and protective qualities during activities having differing head angles and primary lines of sight. The eyeglass can comprise a lens, a frame, and a nosepiece. The frame can have opposing terminals and an upper groove extending at least partially along the frame and a downwardly extending post. The nosepiece can have a mounting component extending upwardly to engage the post, and the lens can be cooperatively retained between the frame and the nosepiece. Sets of corresponding nose pieces and lenses are provided, to optimize the eyeglasses for different primary viewing axes in the vertical plane.
