Adjust glasses frames
Adjusting a frame means adapting your glasses to your face so they fit well and are comfortable. If they move, pinch, or are crooked, we will check the fit in-store to make them stable and comfortable again.
When is it appropriate to adjust glasses?
It usually makes sense to check the fit when:
- · the glasses slide down or fall off your nose
- · one temple arm presses more than the other
- · the glasses feel crooked
- · the frame leaves uncomfortable marks
- · the glasses sit too high or too low on your face
How to adjust glasses so they don't fall?
You can adjust your goggles with gentle, even pressure. Just heat the temples by submerging them in hot water, but be careful, don't cook your lenses! Hot water can damage the coating. So, adjust carefully and without making glasses soup. If the problem is on the nose and your frame is metal, adjust the pads: spread them apart if they are too high or bring them together if they are too low.
Make only small adjustments; If you need more, better go to your optician to avoid damage.
Frequent questions
Can crooked glasses be fixed?
Yes. In many cases, glasses can be realigned with a frame adjustment.
How much does it cost to adjust glasses?
Frame adjustments are part of the free routine glasses maintenance at Miller & Marc.
Can glasses be adjusted at home?
Some minor adjustments may seem easy to fix at home, but many frames require tools and expertise to avoid damaging the material or lenses. When glasses are out of adjustment, it is best to have an optician check the fit.
Is it normal for glasses to get out of alignment?
Yes. Daily use, minor impacts, or changes to the frame can cause glasses to become misaligned over time.
How often should I have my glasses adjusted?
If you notice that your glasses no longer sit well or feel uncomfortable, it's a good idea to have them checked to ensure they still fit correctly.
