    • Take out the old lens if you're working with a broken one.

    • Carefully place the new lens where the old lens used to be, positioning it so it’s in line with the frame. The curve of the glass should be pointing toward the front of the frame.

    • Hold the frame together so it is still.

    • While holding the frame together, take the screw and screw it back in with the 1.5mm screwdriver, rotating it clockwise.

    • It may be helpful to have a friend assist you in holding the frame or screwing in the screw.

    • After screwing in the screw, make sure the lens is secure. If needed, clean the lens with soft cotton cloth or water.

    • Using your shirt is a bad idea to clean glasses. There can be a lot of dust on your shirt which will scratch the lens.

I have older lens I had placed in new frames. The lens kept falling out even with the screws being tight. I brought in the glasses back to the Walmart Eye glasses shop, cleaned the lens edges and tightened them back in. This did not help. I remember as a kid that the optometrist had a not sticky tape that they placed around the lens which helped hold it in. I asked about this but the shop did not know what I was referring to. I had just been fixing a loose nut and bolt with some plummer’s tape on it to hold. So after my lens fell out of my frame again while clearing snow I tried using the tape. I wrapped the stretchy plastic tape around the lens and popped it in. Then with a new razor I cut the tape around the rim and it held- Yeah.

There is also a product called Sugru that is moldable glue that is great for this problem that Andrew Sparber had with this glasses. We use it to repair frame breaks in sunglasses for our customers, it’s super tough and really holds broken glasses frames together. You can buy it at www.sugru.com.
