Frame Types
Essentially, all frames can be grouped into one of the following categories and are available in numerous material combinations:

Full Frame - lenses are completely enclosed by the frame eyewire

Semi-Rimless Frame - only a portion (usually 1/2) of the lenses are encircled by the frame eyewire

Rimless Frame - vitually no portion of the lenses are enclosed by the frame eyewire. These are often referred to a "drill mount" because the frame chasis is held together by drilling hole in the lenses and securing with screws or pressure fasteners
