How to Fix the Fit of Eyeglasses
ID: 178422
Description: This guide provides a simple, effective method...
Steps:
- Assess the glasses and check the deformed areas (legs, temple tips, and nose).
- Use a hair dryer to warm the temple tips.
- Avoid overheating the frames. Moving the hair dryer ensures the heat is evenly distributed without damaging the plastic.
- Gently bend and adjust the temple tips to your desired position.
- Make sure the temple tips are bent just enough to fit securely behind your ears.
- Use the hair dryer and pliers to adjust the legs of the eyeglasses.
- Ensure the frame sits evenly and symmetrically on a flat surface.
- If the frame does not sit evenly and wobbles, readjust the legs until satisfied.
- Adjust the nose pads using your thumb and fingers without applying heat.
- Heating the nose pads is not necessary since they are malleable enough to be bent with small amounts of pressure.
- Be careful not to over-bend the nose pads, as they can break if too much pressure is applied.
