- FIG. 1 An exploded view of a lens assembly according to an illustrative embodiment is described with reference to FIG. 1.
- the lens assembly is an enhanced view double lens assembly 110 adapted to be coupled, in a removable manner, to a frame 210 (illustrated in FIG. 8) associated with a goggle assembly 200 (illustrated in FIG. 8).
