Wow you really saved the day! I went to my local optical shop for tightening and they way overdid it. The nosepads were making indententations on my nose and behind the ears. This method really works and beats driving 20 miles during a freezing cold, snowy day. Thank you!
Thank you for the informative and really excellent step-by-step well-photographed and tutorial instruction. My issue was with the corner on my new glasses not from RV by the way. My temples were pointing way to downward on my new glasses. I did search a lot of RU-vid videos and I found yours addressed my specific issue as well as others. I bought my glasses from Pearle Vision in Crest Hill Illinois and after multiple attempts they could not adjust my glasses and I didn't know this information otherwise I would have told them how to do it LOL
Recently purchased my first pair of Warby Parker sunglasses and have to say they are probably the finest finished piece I've ever bought and I've been wearing glasses for 55 years. The frames are smooth, light and incredibly comfortable. I love my new Warby Parkers!!!
Thank you for this tips. I’ve been doing self fitting and adjustment all these times and this video really correct my approaches thoroughly. Especially the temple ends part. ❤Now I can do it better at home and adjust it myself after ordering online.
I know it’s not Covid anymore but this was really helpful. I’ve been to the eye dr 3 times to have my frames adjusted. They have almost been unwearable. This really helped my life
I’ve been struggling with bent frames for weeks after accidentally sitting on them. While watching this video I was able to straighten and tighten everything up perfectly! Thank you!!
Thanks for this video, I live in LI and don't have one near me to go to for adjustments and not ready to attempt to venture to Manhattan or get on the Long Island Railroad since people are still not truly practicing safe measures. I will give this a try. thank you for posting for those of us that can't get to a location for adjusting!
Thanks you very much I've been trying to adjust my glasses since when I bought my glasses till now, then I saw your video and you have fixed my glasses adjustment problem 🙂
Thank you for this video! I usually wear contacts, but I'm required to wear my glasses for two weeks in preparation for LASIK surgery! My glasses are always falling off my face and this helped!
Thanks for the tips. I just got my first pair of Rx glasses and the frames were so crooked I could not wear them. I wasn't able to get back to the local store to get them adjusted for over a week and it would have been helpful if I found this video beforehand. Today I was actually searching on how eyeglass places adjust lenses. I was told if the glasses aren't right that can be done, I have progressives and can see far and fine print, but my comptuer screen (mid range) isn't any better than it was without glasses. I'm wondeering if my Rx is wrong or if the lenses can be adjusted enough to fix this issue.
How do you adjust the bridge/nosepads on a plastic frame? My new glasses are “V” shaped with the bridge resting on my nose and air underneath the nosepads. The home try on pair was not like this.
Excellent video and instructions for us dummies at this ;) haha Very well thought out as is everything from your company, great customer service and the buy a pair give a pair concept as well :) God bless.
I assume you can do something similar if the glasses are a little too tight at the temples? They feel like they should bow out about 1/3 of the way from the hinge.
@@warbyparker I don't think you understood the question, which is the problem I have. The "temple ends" go behind the ear (not really the "temples."). The "bow-out that this customer refers to I think is that the eyeglass frames on both sides press against the side of your head (not your ears). They feel like they are too narrow, or made for a smaller head.
Me too can someone tell us how to stop a pair of glasses from squeezing our head. They are too tight,I have a big head and also am sensitive to pressure.
This is helpful. My new glasses are too tight on the sides - how would I adjust this? Either the temple corners need to open a little wider, or the temple arms need to curve out slightly? Or possibly there's too much curve in the lenses and flattening out the bridge would then give me a little temple breathing room? The home-try-on pair of the same frames fit me perfect, so I'm confident that the width of the frames fit my head. I think I just need an adjustment on my prescription pair that isn't covered in this video. Or should I just try and wear them for a couple of weeks to see if they adjust? I have acetate frames.
For straightening the frames, she mentions the left side being too high or too low and adjusting the left temple of the frames but if you were to put the glasses in her hands on, she is adjusting the right temple? Am I completely confused? My glasses are crooked (too high on the left/too low on the right) and I'm not sure which way to adjust them based on the video.
Basically, you want to bend them in the opposite way of which they are misplaced. If they are already too high on one side, why would you bend them higher?
what about adjusting the resistance of how fast they open/close? on mine there are screws that i’m able to tighten and i think that’s how but i find it difficult holding the glasses steady and being able to use a precision screwdriver at the same time
I just received my Warby Parker glasses, they are crooked and need adjusting and they have transition or light-responsive lenses. I have heard warnings against heating up the frame due to potential damage to the lenses. Is that the case with Warby Parker light-responsive lenses or can I use the method in the video without concern of causing lens damange?
My optician refused to adjust the glasses that I purchased at Warby Parker. I have plastic frames and they slide down my nose. What are your suggestions? Thanks!
I have new glasses and asked the assistant to tighten the nose area. She adjusted the ear part and they are pressing into my ear. I went back and it was another assistant she looked annoyed and asked why I had returned. It is still not right so I will try this. Thankyou
What about plastic frames sitting at an angle? The top line of my glasses sits closer to my face than the bottom, like this / | causing distortion and eye strain when looking down. Its like my ears arent high up enough. I'm ready to throw away my new glasses i cant see out of half of them.
Great video! My glasses are brand new and do not sit even when on a flat service and when they’re upside down, so I know the temple arms at the hinges were made slightly uneven, what should I do? I feel like asking for a new pair because I hate the idea of having new glasses bent just because they were made crooked.
My glasses are way too tight on my head, on the sides (large head). They are pressing so hard that it's painful in mere moments. How do I spread the arms out away from my head without hurting anything?
