Fitting
Adjust earpieces gently for comfort: Bend in to tighten, out to loosen. Warm water or a hairdryer can soften the material. Be gentle and cautious when making adjustments.
Cleaning
Ensure clear vision with regular lens care. Use a microfiber cloth and cleaning spray. Avoid clothing or tissues to prevent scratches. Rinse with lukewarm water and dry with a clean cloth.
Protection
To shield glasses from scratches, damage, and dirt, store them in a hard case when not in use. Avoid leaving them in pockets or lens-side down on surfaces to prevent easy damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
We recommend cleaning your glasses daily to maintain optimal vision and prevent buildup of dirt and oils. Use a microfiber cloth and proper lens cleaning solution. Avoid using clothing, paper towels, or tissues as these can scratch your lenses.
-
If your frames become loose, you can make minor adjustments at home by gently bending the earpieces. For plastic frames, warming them slightly with warm water can help. However, for significant adjustments, we recommend contacting us for professional assistance to avoid damaging your frames.
-
To prevent scratches, always store your glasses in a hard case when not in use. Never place them lens-side down on any surface. Clean them only with a microfiber cloth and proper cleaning solution. Avoid leaving them in hot cars or exposing them to extreme temperatures which can affect the lens coatings.
-
Consider replacing your glasses if you notice significant scratches on the lenses, the frames are damaged or no longer fit properly, or if your prescription has changed. We recommend having your eyes tested every 2 years, or sooner if you notice any changes in your vision. Remember, you can always use our reglazing service to keep your favourite frames with new lenses.
