This video is a life saver. You have no idea how thankful i am for this. For context, i am a 16 y.o. dude who has been wearing glasses for YEARS. One day my lens popped out and i had no idea what to do, i started panicking, thinking that one of my parents (i will not specify which one) would beat the living shit out of me but this saved me a lot of money i could have spent on getting it done in a shop. Put the lens back in after my brain stopped buffering the information and did it in 2 minutes. This is a great video that saved me from an ass whooping, spending money and having an anxiety attack. Thank you 300000/10

I have the Silhouette frameless glasses, can attest that is better to pinch them with fingers and go to the optician´s shop later. I also have another pair of Silhouette with the metal "cord" on the bottom so although not interested in taking the lenses off, now I know how to put them back in in a hurry. Great video as usual, i watch most if not all of your videos to learn something new since I started wearing prescription a year ago.

[@hambleturtleh2211]

thanks... saved time and money and an 8 year old now has glasses over Easter holidays instead of a headache. Plastic frames were dropped and the frame split, so instead of trying to glue them back together* I swapped the lenses into an old frame (and transferred a leg from the new but broken frame to the old frame that had mislaid a leg after I'd previously scavenged a screw). *it's a diagonal split above the lens about 2cm long but I'm not sure if super glue would have held.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Superglue won’t hold, and in fact ruins the repair ability of the frame. Often times (if it’s acetate) it can be fused back together. 😎. Your path is the better one though. Great work and glad this video helped you pull off an Easter week miracle! 😁😁

Hey, I have a pair of prescription plastic glasses. I can get 3 corners of the lenses in the frame pretty easily but I can never seem to fit the last corner no matter how hard I pinch. I can still wear the glasses just fine with one corner loose. Will it hurt my eyes to wear them like that?

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

It won’t hurt your eyes, but that lens can pop out easily. Odds are it’s a little big or the material shrunk. A good optician can get it back in 😎. Swing by a local optical and see if they can get you fixed up 👌

[@KristoferBurns]

Do you have any tips: my glasses frames broke and I’ve been using cheap frames from Walmart. But now since my lens were originally made for sunglasses I’m having issues finding a frame that fits. I tried googling the frame number but nothing pops up. I’m using glue and tape until I get an application but is there a way to salvage the lens still.?

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Generally it's best to get a new lens unless you can find a close enough frame to shoe-horn it into or cut it down for if the lens is plenty large enough. I'm not a huge fan of just tossing things just because, but sometimes... it's time.

[@KristoferBurns]

Soooo my metal frame has come out with the lens? Not completely just the top corner so I’m thinking it’s not welded like you said? Help please.

Just look to see if you have a screw somewhere around the metal rim that directly touches the lens. You’ll likely need to loosen that a bit to push the lens back in (gently) and then re tighten it. :)

How would u take out the frame for metal glasses cus my friend has one that’s slanted so he wants to just take it out and put it back in because someone sat on them accidentally so they became slanted

They should be fixed with the lenses in and proper bracing to prevent cracking the lens. Any optical shop should be able to fix that with ease 🙂

I actually broke the plastic frame around the lens, but after fixing it with superglue, it's tough to fit it in

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Superglue rarely if ever holds up, and prevents any proper repairs from being done :( Hopefully you can get a replacement frame to use the lenses at least (assuming they weren't ruined with superglue too :/

[@415M_Productions]

How do I know if I have nylon Frames?

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

No metal core wire in the temple is a start, but it's tough to say. Generally the specialty ones that can't be heated will be marked somewhere on the frame though 🙂, some nylons can be heated but respond weird too. Generally nylon frames will be sport wraps, but there are a few exceptions out there 😎

If the portion that would normally holds the lens in is broken there’s not a ton most people can do. Avoid superglue at all costs first of all though. Outside of that a good repair shop can mend the plastic break in many cases 🥂

If you have my kinds of frames they should just pop inside with just a bit of pressure.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Lot of variables, but a well fit lens should be snug but fit back into the frame with minimal effort for sure 😎. The steps here are to prevent damage to the frame and lens, as well as fit when the lens fit was less than ideal to begin with. I.e. covering all the bases. 😎

Hey thanks, but it has now a dent,

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Overheated or lenses a bit too big for the frame (some plastics in particular shrink with age). Unfortunately, happens sometimes.

But all of these beat no lens 🥂 just some tips for in the future, hopefully you don’t need them🤞🏻
