reference number 12 and the case illustrated in fig3 and 4 is of a style generally referred to as an open end case in that a pair of eyeglasses is inserted into and removed from the case through an opening 10 fig1 and 2 illustrate two embodiments of the laminated layers of materials from which the case is made the cushioning liner layer 1 can be die cut for example to a substantially square or rectangular shape from a sheet of flocked material having a polymer coating on one side such cushioning lining materials are commercially available alternatively separate layers of flocked material and heat sealable polymer can be laminated to each other by suitable contact adhesive either before or after being die cut similarly the outer layer 2 can be die cut from a sheet of polymer pvc film to a size and shape similar to that of the polymer backed flock material only larger as illustrated in fig1 alternatively the outer layer 2 may be die cut to a substantially square as illustrated or rectangular shape and the cushioning liner layer 1 may be cut smaller than the outer layer and having ears 6 extending on either side of the top edge the layers 1 and 2 are assembled such that the liner layer 1 is centered and superimposed on the outer layer 2 with the top edges of the layers flush and the polymer coated side of the liner layer 1 in contact with the inner surface of the outer layer 2 the exposed area 4 of the laminated sheet beyond the area of the liner layer may be in the range of 1 8 34 to 1 2 34 wide depending on the thickness of the laminated sheet preferably the width of the exposed area 4.
