This video is a life-saver. None of the optometrists I've gone to, save for one, ever tried to properly fit my glasses to my head. The first place I went to actually let me pick out child's frames when I was in high school and never said a word in warning. The place after that looked at my old glasses and laughed, which was where I actually found out what the first place had done.

Exact same thing happened to me. The ladies in the optometry office let me pick out child's frames and never said anything to me. I was in agony, they were tight on my temples, and I kept going back for adjustments, and I started thinking that I was crazy because they were still too tight, and they still never said anything to me. I only found out because I went to a different branch that they owned. What's wrong with people!

Recently I have been watching a few of your videos. I like how you don't edit out little bloops of even silence. I watch so many videos that are exhausting simply because the edited result is unnatural and "fast forwarding". I come to realize that I never used the expertise of the salesperson. The optometrist may measure the right corrections, but when it comes to finding comfortable glasses I settled for "whatever". Long time ago I told myself that nose pads are not comfortable and I went with contact lenses. Now I need reading glasses, so I opted for double focus glasses with a bridge as opposed to pads. My most recent pair look great, but they slide off my head when I look down. The hook behind my ear is pretty much straight and I use a workaround with "Anti-Slip Eyeglass Ear Grips Hooks". When I picked up my glasses, the sales person told me that this frame is not much adjustable. Now I wonder, why did they sell them to me? Also, now I wear hearing aids and the specialist was wondering if my frame would cover the microphone and reduce the benefit. I scheduled an appointment for my eye exam, and now I need to pay attention to the expertise of the person who will fit my glasses. Perhaps instead of browsing the displays with frames I should ask them to give me a few ideas of perfect fitting frames.

Haha, I get what you mean! I've seen that trend of editing out every breath of every video and I just don't get it! If you want robots go to Chat GPT >.< Nose pads are such a double edged sword, but I do find that modern ceramic pads have a REALLY good feel to them when properly fitted and adjusted well. Some opticals really just have sales people. See this a lot in the HVAC industry too, they'ld rather send out a salesperson to pusha new unit on you than a true technician to actually diangose and fix a problem.... Hearing aids are definitely a tricky situation, but there are ways of adjusting the frame to fit well and still avoid the mic area of the devices :) Just takes a little know how. Definitely advise that, always! A good pro helping you can make so much of a difference, but they can be tough to spot. The basic knowledge here will help you have a better understanding at least, so dive through the fit and adjusting playlist to have a good core starting point (sounds like you've already started and gone quite a ways already, so kudos & thank you for that!)

Why don't all opticians know these things? Mine always takes my glasses and lays them on a table. He says that they are not level, so they are adjusted wrong. The two sides have to be different to look and feel right. I even told him that I had bilateral otoplasty, so my ears are not the same on both sides. Nope! He messes up my glasses and sends me home in misery. Finally, I quit him. You need to go on the speaking circuit to opticians!

What about straight arm temples like my Oakley eyeglasses? The retaining screw that holds the temple as well as controls the 'pressure' of opening and closing the temples, gets loose over time, and eventually the temples just flop open and closed. I've been told this is caused by closing the temples when you store your glasses, causing the screw to 'strip out' over time. I'm looking for a way to fix this issue; was thinking something like a VERY TINY amount of Loc-Tite on the the screw threads, or nail polish, or something similar to strengthen the hold. Any ideas folks?
@ThatGlassesGuy03
@ThatGlassesGuy03 2 жыл бұрын
Nail polish all day long. Just enough grip to keep it from loosening bit easy enough to break loose when you need it to. It's actually due to play in the difference in the screw vs barrel threads 🙃

Hi, I'm wondering as a wide faced person with a low bridge would metal arms on plastic frame be more flexible than a full on plastic. I bought the latter plastic ones and they hurt behind my ears terribly until broke them in. I also am wondering does the fact that metal arms are placed slightly lower than the top of the frame ( current plastic ones extend straight from the top like yours)help me with my low nose bridge issue. This from someone who orders online due to lower cost and doesn't really have access to adjustments from physical stores. Thank in advance for your answer.

for starters no matter the glasses source a professional adjustment is well worth the cost when done properly. Comfort matters hugely! :) As to your question, tough to say, as the overall design plays a larger role than just where on the frame the temples mount. Many plastic frames also feature temples that mount lower, but often they need to be higher for the proper lens tilt for best vision :)

@Modest Opticianit's not the temple length as they are both 146, and actually longer then the crest of my ear. TMI (maybe useful for someone so7) I'm a female with extremely large square head, low nose bridge and big round close set, deep set eyes. My first online purchase was Zenni #124218. It's a robust plastic frame, that's meant to be oversized(on regular skulled people) so the temples are significantly tapered in from the general Width of the frame. It hurt me behind the ears like a b and it took me months to break them in by wearing them over headbands and such. I now purchased Crullé Thrive frames and have no issues with discomfort around the ears even though they're slightly narrower, the bridge size is more fitting for my low bridge nose. So functionally they serve me well. However, if esthetics are taken into consideration, the virtual try on is faulty on both sites cause it keeps narrowing your face unrealistically. So yes the Zenni's were more flattering for wide faces, and the Crullé's are extremely delicate, small and unflattering especially with the yellow tint of blue blocker (huge practical gain for me though).
@JB-tt6ct
@JB-tt6ct 2 жыл бұрын
@Modest Optician distributers of the frames put everything over 140 into size L. Also they don't put much info on the material other than"artificial mass". The Crullé one have "flex" as special feature( no info on the site or knowledge on my part about spring hinges) Temple/ bridge relation is something that's mentioned in the Asian fit (wide, high cheekbones, fat cheeks, low nose bridge). Companies that specialise in that Do not ship to my country. But it's very on point with my face, even though I'm not asian. The virtual try one says I'm size M cause my close set eyes align with the credit card against the center of my face. So I'm much better off looking at the referential Asian model and the fit of the frames, than relying on the virtual try on that isn't scaled properly.

Should the glasses fit snug on the side of the head or you need to leave a little space over there?
@ThatGlassesGuy03
@ThatGlassesGuy03 Жыл бұрын
Depends on the frame design really, but in very general terms, they should start to touch (ideally not squeeze) just a buy back from where the temple starts, and from there follow the contour of the head. The more area you can spread that touch out over the more grip and comfort you have (as long as it's not too tight, too tight will still slip.. and or hurt) 🙂

This video gives a bit more comprehensive look at the topic, but they also need to grip the head properly from the temples back, not just behind the ears :).

I hate my new plastic glasses, theyre uncomfortable, either too tight around the ear but they still slip off the nose, pr kust loose everywhere, they're horrible

Sounds like a bad fit or poorly made frame more than an issue with plastic frames in general. There’s not much. Lee comfortable than a high quality acetate with proper fit and adjustment. Hopefully you can get it sorted out or find a better adjustment :)

I recently bought some frames I really wanted from the UK online but was having a hard time adjusting them, watching a few of your adjustment videos helped me get them just right. I had a bad experience with another pair I bought. I loved the frames and the opticians were nice, but they just couldn't get them adjusted right after having them adjust over a dozen times. Anyway, it's nice to have someone explain what to look for and how to make that bend to account for it (also just... what you can and can't do to a frame to make adjustments, I think that's another source of confusion). I looked up your store, nice to see a fellow Tenneseean (I thought I recognized a TN accent!), I'm from Knoxville but I'll definitely look into your shop when I get my next prescription update. Out of curiosity, do you stock Reykjavik Eyes? Thanks for creating these helpful videos!

With AI and computer technology, why the fuck can't they make glasses that fit? Having this problem since I was a child

Funny you say that, it’s far from mainstream but there is a company utilizing exactly that concept. 3DNA uses 3D scans of the head to build a custom frame for you that fits. But even then, if the adjustment at the end is trash, so is the fit. 🤷‍♂️. 3 companies I know of that together offer the best ergonomics (fit and feel) and the widest range of fit combined across all 3 TC Charton, Blake Kuwahara, Laibach & York. Nobody else comes remotely close to these three in ergonomics, and they all make some pretty cool shit TBH 😂

Helpful video, but so odd how often you stop talking and look and sound like you're holding in a burp. Did you just down a whole sprite in 12 seconds before the video? 😂

May your glasses forever be crooked and wrekt because you don’t want to actually grasp the concepts. Here have the 10 second version. Maybe you’ll get it right. Maybe you’ll make them fit worse. Maybe you’ll break them. kzfaq.infoHzBKlDn6v8s?si=37EAUCmmYJCRiYEW
