1. A frame for spectacles with magnifying lenses, of the type in which there is provision on each lens for a magnifying eyepiece to be mounted, said frame comprising:
a front mount including, for each lens, a respective slot which extends at least at an eyebrow arch zone of the frame, between a central region of a nose support mount and an opposite lateral region of the front mount for articulating a respective arm to the frame, each slot being configured to receive at least one portion of a respective lens-carrying support which can support the lens by at least partially surrounding a peripheral edge portion of the lens,
fixing means for fixing the lens-carrying support which is received in the respective slot to the front mount, wherein the lens-carrying support is received in the corresponding slot with a coupling play transverse to the front mount and said fixing means are configured to fix each lens-carrying support to the front mount in a preselected relative positioning which is allowed by the coupling play so as to make the orientation of each lens adjustable with respect to the front mount, wherein said fixing means comprise at least one fixing screw which is configured to engage with a screwing action with a threaded hole which is provided in the lens-carrying support, passing through a through-opening which is slotted and formed in the front mount at the corresponding slot so that the screw is engaged in the slotted opening with relative freedom to slide between opposite ends of said slotted opening in order to be gripped in the preselected relative positioning corresponding to the desired orientation of the lens with respect to the mount.
