Fine- Tune the Fit: How to Adjust Your Glasses Frame at Home

Not quite sitting right? Here's how to adjust your glasses frame at home for a more secure, comfortable fit.

1. Glasses Slide Down?

• Plastic frames: Soak arms in warm water for 30 seconds, then bend the temple tips slightly downward.
• Metal frames: Gently curve the temple tips inward for a tighter grip behind the ears.

2. One Side Sits Higher?

• Bend the arm on the higher side upward at the hinge — this lowers the frame on that side.
• Or bend the lower side downward to raise it.

3. Too Tight or Too Loose at the Temples?

• Gently bend the arms outward to loosen or inward to tighten grip on your head.

4. Uncomfortable Nose Fit (Metal Frames Only)?

• Too high: Spread the nose pads apart.
• Too low: Bring nose pads closer together.

5. Frame Sits Too Far or Too Close to Eyes?

• Slightly bend the temple arms near the hinge inward or outward to adjust how close the frame sits to your face.
