Small adjustments can make a big difference
Comfort and vision together
Frame position affects how the lenses sit as well as how the glasses feel.
Careful material-aware fitting
We adjust frames using the right approach for their construction and shape.
Checked again at collection
Final fitting helps ensure new glasses sit securely before you leave with them.
When frames do not sit right, you feel it
Glasses that slip, pinch, sit unevenly or rest too close to your cheeks can become distracting very quickly. A proper frame fitting looks at bridge contact, temple length, side pressure, level positioning and how securely the frame sits behind the ears. Those details matter for comfort, but they also affect how well you see through the lenses. If the frame position is wrong, the optical centres may not line up as intended. We assess the fit carefully so the glasses support clear vision as well as feeling stable. That is especially important when lens height and pupil alignment need to be accurate for the prescription to work as planned.
Fine adjustments with the frame material in mind
Adjustments can help with slipping, pressure points, incorrect tilt and glasses sitting too close to the cheeks or eyelashes. We carry them out carefully, using heating, shaping and small corrections suited to the frame material and construction. The aim is not to force the frame into position, but to improve how it sits while respecting how it is made. Final fitting is also part of collection when completed eyewear is ready, so we can assess comfort, alignment and vision together. That joined-up check helps turn a good pair of glasses into one that feels properly wearable from the moment you leave with it.
Frequently asked questions
Why do glasses keep slipping down?
Slipping can happen when the bridge fit, side pressure, temple length or overall frame balance is not quite right. We check those areas carefully and make fine adjustments so the glasses feel more secure and sit in a better working position.
Can adjustments affect how clearly lenses work?
Yes. Frame position influences where the lenses sit in front of the eyes, so improving tilt, level or alignment can support clearer vision as well as comfort. That is especially important when the prescription relies on accurate lens placement.
Are glasses fitted when collected?
They are. When completed eyewear is ready, we carry out a final fitting so comfort, alignment and vision can be checked together. That gives us a chance to make any small corrections before the glasses become part of everyday wear.
