How to Adjust Your Glasses
You saved a bundle ordering glasses from Zenni, after carefully choosing the right frame style and size for your face. Now your glasses have arrived in the mail. You put them on and look in the mirror.
Yikes! They're crooked!
That's OK. Sometimes new eyeglasses need to be adjusted. In the old days, when you paid 10 times more for glasses you bought at the local optical store, the optician adjusted them for you.
But you can do it yourself, by following these easy-to-understand instructions.
Don't worry. Your frame can stand a little bending. And when you've been wearing them for a while and they get out of shape again, just repeat the adjustments, and you're good to go!

Adjusting Your Glasses
THE PROBLEM:
They are sitting too low on your nose
FOR WIRE FRAME GLASSES:
Use your thumbs to push the nose pads closer together until they fit snugly against either side of your nose.
FOR PLASTIC FRAME GLASSES:
Place your glasses in a bowl of warm water for 30-60 seconds. Carefully apply an inward and downward pressure to the end of the temples to achieve a tighter fit behind the ears.
THE PROBLEM:
They are pinching your nose
FOR WIRE FRAME GLASSES:
Use your thumbs to spread the nose pads out until they fit comfortably.
FOR PLASTIC FRAME GLASSES:
Place your glasses in a bowl of warm water for 30-60 seconds. Carefully apply an outward and upward pressure to the end of the temples to achieve a relaxed fit behind the ears.
THE PROBLEM:
One lens is higher than the other
THE LEFT LENS IS HIGHER THAN THE RIGHT LENS:
If the left lens is higher than the right lens, bend the right temple arm down where it's most adjustable: at the hinge or the bend at your ear.
THE RIGHT LENS IS HIGHER THAN THE LEFT LENS:
If the right lens is higher than the left lens, bend the left temple arm down where it's most adjustable: at the hinge or the bend at your ear.
THE PROBLEM:
One lens is closer to your eye than the other
IF YOUR LEFT LENS IS CLOSER IN:
Bend the left temple arm in and/or the right temple arm out at the hinge.
IF YOUR RIGHT LENS IS CLOSER IN:
Bend the right temple arm in and/or the left temple arm out at the hinge.
*While your glasses are strong, be careful not to apply excessive force.
A NOTE ABOUT CERTAIN FRAMES:
Some frame materials resist adjustment: titanium, memory titanium, memory plastic, and aluminum alloy. Others are quite adjustable, including stainless steel or plastic / acetate temple arms in which a stainless steel rod is embedded.
