Zusammenfassung:	A lever actuated locking mechanism for attaching an optical element to a printed circuit board assembly. The locking mechanism includes a first arm extending from a side edge of an opening formed in the optical element. A locking tab protrudes from one side of a distal end of the first arm. A first actuating lever arm extends from a mid-portion of the first arm. An actuating lever connects to a distal end of the first actuating lever arm, wherein applying pressure to the actuating lever causes the locking tab to pivot about a point where the first arm is attached to the side edge of the opening.
