Semi rimless eyeglass frames are basically a frames with lens rims, where part of the lens rim was removed. In most cases, the removed part is the bottom part. But lately this is not a rule any more and the removed part is taken from any part of the lens rim. The lens itself then holds in the rim using nylon, which fits into a cut slot in the lens.
This type of rimless eyeglass frames is also known as drilled or patents. They consist only of the bridge and two temples. Individual pieces are put together into one piece with screws, plastic inserts or other mechanisms. The connecting link between the bridge and the temples are the lenses themselves. These can be cut into many shapes and have a flat edge.
