Repairing the nose bridge of a pair of eyeglasses
Wearing glasses is the option chosen by the vast majority of people requiring vision correction.
However, the pair of spectacles must be perfectly fitted and adapted to provide optimal comfort on a daily basis.
Here's why the nose bridge may need to be fixed and how to fix it properly when it does.
Why might your nose bridge need repair?
A pair of spectacles worn on a daily basis can be damaged by the passage of time or by poor handling.
The most common cases are broken or badly scratched lenses or an eyeglass temple that unscrews or breaks.
However, the nose bridge of the eyewear may also be subject to some alterations.
In most cases, one of the nose bridge pads will unscrew or fall off.
This can make it painful to wear glasses because the person no longer has the plate to protect their nose wing.
In other cases, the nasal bridge will deform with wear and tear and will no longer fit as snugly to the face.
And an overly loose nose bridge can cause the glasses to slide forward regularly.
So, whatever the problem with your nasal bridge, it is essential to find a solution as soon as possible in order to regain optimal comfort.
How to properly fix the nose bridge of your glasses
The nose bridge repair will obviously depend on the problem encountered.
If the nose pad has fallen off, there is a procedure that makes it easy to put it back in place.
Indeed, it is enough to place the pair of glasses on the lens side, making sure to put them on a smooth and clean cloth.
You then have to find the place where the pad is usually screwed on and proceed to put it back in place.
If the nose pad or its screw is lost, it is then essential to go to your optician so that he can take care of the repair.
On a metal spectacle frame, a deformed or loose nose bridge can sometimes be adjusted with the fingers.
To prevent the nose bridge from slipping, beeswax can also be applied to the inside of the bridge.
To perform the same digital manipulation on a plastic frame, the frame must first be softened by being immersed in a bowl of warm water.
However, it is important to remember that when a nose bridge is broken or needs repair, it is highly advisable to take it to your optician.
Indeed, the repair of your glasses can never be better than done by a professional.
