Name of the part of glasses

Hi

Could you please tell me what we call the parts of the glasses (spectacles) which stick behind our ears? Because this part often comes off and then I don't know what to call it.

Thanks

, I would call it an "earpiece". It's part of the "frame", and is attached by a "hinge". All the best, MrP

In the U.S., those are the temples of the glasses.
