FRAME MAINTENANCE
Often times it’s the little things that can get overlooked in our day to day lives. Here are a few tips on how you can make a huge impact on your frames overall look and feel.
Routine maintenance on your eyewear can make a world of difference! Sometimes frames just need a cleaning and the changing out of a few key pieces of hardware.
The maintenance checklist includes various things such as:
a deep cleaning
changing the old dirty nosepads
temple tips
and screws when applicable
have your glasses adjusted periodically by an Optician
Even if you haven’t had a dramatic incident occur, your frames can get out of shape from just the normal wear and tear of everyday life- most of us also don’t realize just how dirty our glasses can become after long term wear!
This image illustrates the importance of having your nosepads replaced on a regular basis.
Nosepads come in a variety of sizes, materials and styles so they can be replaced with the closest match or a new type. Get rid of those old nasty worn pads and get some fresh new ones!
This beauty went from drab to fab with a little help from the maintenance checklist!
Look at those stones after a thorough cleaning and polish! Along with a new 18k gold plating to really bring back the original shine.
Broken screws, incorrect screws, poorly mounted nosepads, cracked temple tips, we see it all. You don’t necessarily need a new pair just to maintain the ones you have.
Temple tips can become discolored, cracked and just generally gunky. Luckily they can be replaced!
The most common replacement temple tip colors are black, brown and clear but there are also some that come in a variety of colors.
Your eyeglasses deserve some love every now and again, and if they need a little extra attention send them our way and we can get them dialed in!
