Frame Repairs & Adjustments
Professional frame repairs and adjustments to restore comfort, fit, and function to your eyeglasses.
Frame repairs and adjustments encompass a range of in-office services to restore damaged or improperly fitting eyeglass frames. This includes realigning bent frames, replacing missing screws or nose pads, tightening loose hinges, and reshaping frames that have become uncomfortable or misaligned.
Our opticians use precision tools to gently reshape metal or plastic frames, replace hardware, and adjust temple arms and nose pads to achieve a secure, comfortable fit. Most minor repairs and adjustments can be completed while you wait during a brief in-office visit.
Even small misalignments in your frames can shift your lenses out of their optimal position, causing blurry vision, eye strain, or headaches. Regular adjustments keep your glasses fitting correctly and extend the life of your frames — protecting your investment and your vision.
Answers to help
you make an informed decision.
Who might consider this treatment?
Frame repairs and adjustments are for anyone whose glasses feel uncomfortable, are sitting unevenly, or have been bent, scratched, or damaged. You don't need to have purchased your frames from us — we welcome patients from all sources who need professional optical service.
What is the typical experience?
Most repairs are completed right in our optical lab while you wait. Our opticians will examine your frames, identify the issue, and restore proper fit and function using precision tools. We'll also check that your lenses remain aligned correctly after any adjustment.
How long does it usually take?
Minor adjustments typically take just 5 to 15 minutes and can often be done as a walk-in service. More involved repairs such as soldering or part replacements may take longer or require a follow-up appointment if parts need to be ordered.
Is there anything to keep in mind?
Not all frames are repairable — some older plastic frames become brittle over time and may crack further during adjustment attempts. Our team will give you an honest assessment before proceeding with any repair so you can make an informed decision.
What should I know about recovery after?
No recovery needed. Once your frames are repaired or adjusted, they're ready to wear immediately. We'll walk you through any care tips to help prevent the same issue from recurring and extend the life of your eyewear.
