    Recently I experienced pinching behind my right ear caused by my new eyeglasses frames. I returned to where I bought them, they made a slight adjustment, but the problem wasn’t solved. So I searched on TH-cam and found this tutorial. I filled a bowl with kettle boiled water. I dipped the eyeglass arm (10 - 15 seconds at a time) into the hot water. I carefully made adjustments. Now FINALLY my eyeglasses are comfortable. No more annoying pinch. thank you very much! 😃 👍

      @tammygerstman3368 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      As an optician, I do not recommend doing any of this. Especially popping out the lenses. Trust me an actual lens with a script in especially a strong script DO NOT pop out that simple. Thick frames, strong scripts, yeah they don't go in or out like that. And that is not how you check to see if they are level. So please, please leave the adjusting to a professional. We would rather do it right than have to correct mistakes. Plus, the more you heat your frame the more of a risk for breaking it.

  • @djrutherford3926
    @djrutherford3926 2 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    I wasn't able to pop my lenses out so I just covered the lenses with a small microfiber cloth when I was heating up the eyeglass frames. I used the hair dryer on the lowest setting for 10 seconds for each part of the frame I wanted to adjust, and it worked perfectly. He didn't mention it but you can also loosen your eyeglass temples with his methods.

  • @naomi7984
    @naomi7984 3 ปีที่แล้ว +39

    It works! Yay! My glasses kept sliding down my nose and now they stay put! I skipped removing the lens (only adjusted the bend at the temple) and I pointed the blow dryer at the frame for about 20 seconds (I have a low power hair dryer). Thanks!

      @@papl20 Nope, nothing. I assumed that as long as I'm just adjusting the bend of the temples, there's no point in removing the lenses. But if I do fix the other parts he talked about, I'll definitely remove them, I don't want to risk distorting them or overheating them and whatnot.

    2:44 "From there you just use some force, and the lenses will snap back in" - It was terribly hard to push the lenses back in when I first tried. The trick was to push evenly from all sides and not try to push in one side first. If working just on the temples one can wrap the lenses with a cloth maybe to protect them from heat. Other than this the video was very helpful - thanks.

      @@zinwaiyan6474 If you push in one side then try to push in the other side then it's hard. The trick is to push all sides evenly and it should be alright. Also if the lens and frame opening are not perfectly matched it's hard. I guess applying heat to the frame would help too like you did.

      Thankfully I had the opportunity to watch the professionals at visionworks struggle for 2 HOURS trying to pop the lenses back in (the frame color was wrong so they gave me the frames off the display & had to switch the lenses). I had to come back the next day so someone else could do it 😆 Needless to say, I will never ever be popping the lenses out of my glasses! At least not on purpose lol. have the exact same frames as the video, but my lenses are -8.00 & only medium-slim, so the lenses are THICK, between 1/4th & 1/2 an inch 😅

    Ty! While I got my frames locally we have been in there several times for adjustments and sometimes you can't tell if it's going to be too tight or too loose until you were them for a little while. With all 4 of us getting 2 new pairs we have been in there a lot -_- I just had them adjust mine last night and I kept telling him they were crooked and didn't feel right. I thought he was getting frustrated with me so I said forget it and told myself I'd have someone else adjust them when I went back to get my 2nd pair that they had to reorder. ANYWAYS it was making me so annoyed to have them sit crooked on my face and with this video I fixed it in 30 seconds. Wish I had seen this before when my daughter's were too loose and kept needing adjusted.

    I love that you're using the exact same frames that I'm trying to fix (generic visionworks), but for whatever reason, I can't seem to fix the over extended arm. I fell asleep on them with one of the arms open, so they were bent under pressure for hours 🤦‍♀️ I've used both a hairdryer & hot water, & was able to fix most of the bend, but the last little bit just won't go 😭

    Thomas...There's a much needed device not yet made that spectacle wearers need. It's a device that measures Arm, Bridge and possibly Lens. Imagination needed here. One puts it on, its completely adjustable in every way possible. The person adjusts the device until they create the exact sized frame they need. When they take it off, there are the measurements. Don't doubt what I say Thomas, this low-cost device will sell everywhere. Be sure to patent it once created. One might think it's not needed as this is an optician job. Truth is, there tens of thousands of Opticians who sell incorrectly sized frames to their customers. I have a pair of prescription spectacles from an optician. My temples bleed when I wear them.
