Frame repair.
At Port Chester Eye Care, we repair all types of eyeglasses. Whether you need an alignment, a thread replacement for your semi rimless frame, or just a small screw for your nose pad, we got you covered.
Monofilament Lens RetainerThe Monofilament Lens Retainer is a key component of semi-rimless eyeglasses. It’s a thin, durable nylon thread that secures the lens to the frame; however, like any part of a pair of glasses, it can wear out or break over time. When this happens, bring them to the opticians at Port Chester Eye Care. The repair process involves preparing the lens, inserting the retainer into a groove on the lens edge, pulling it taut to secure the lens, knotting and trimming the excess retainer, and making final adjustments for perfect alignment. This ensures your glasses are not only stylish but also durable.

Temple AdjustmentTemple adjustment for eyeglasses involves modifying the temples (the arms of the glasses) to improve their fit. This can be necessary if the glasses feel too tight or too loose, or if they’re crooked. The process typically involves heating the temples, adjusting them to the desired position, and then allowing them to cool down and retain their new shape. This ensures a comfortable and secure fit for the wearer.
At Port Chester Eye Care, our team are more than capable of assisting with any adjustments or repairs needed for your eyeglasses. |
Frame AdjustmentFrame adjustment for eyeglasses using heat treatment is a method used to modify the fit of your glasses. This process involves gently heating the frames, making them more flexible and easier to adjust. The heat can be applied using a specialized frame heater. Once heated, the frames can be carefully reshaped for a better fit. After the adjustment, the frames are allowed to cool down, solidifying in their new shape. This method is particularly useful for adjusting plastic frames, which can be brittle and prone to breaking when cold.

The replacement process involves removing the old nose pads, usually by unscrewing them, and then attaching new ones. There are various types of nose pads available, including silicone, soft plastic, and hard plastic, each offering different levels of comfort and fit.
