Wow you really saved the day! I went to my local optical shop for tightening and they way overdid it. The nosepads were making indententations on my nose and behind the ears. This method really works and beats driving 20 miles during a freezing cold, snowy day. Thank you!
I know it’s not Covid anymore but this was really helpful. I’ve been to the eye dr 3 times to have my frames adjusted. They have almost been unwearable. This really helped my life
Thank you for the informative and really excellent step-by-step well-photographed and tutorial instruction. My issue was with the corner on my new glasses not from RV by the way. My temples were pointing way to downward on my new glasses. I did search a lot of UA-cam videos and I found yours addressed my specific issue as well as others. I bought my glasses from Pearle Vision in Crest Hill Illinois and after multiple attempts they could not adjust my glasses and I didn't know this information otherwise I would have told them how to do it LOL
Recently purchased my first pair of Warby Parker sunglasses and have to say they are probably the finest finished piece I've ever bought and I've been wearing glasses for 55 years. The frames are smooth, light and incredibly comfortable. I love my new Warby Parkers!!!
Thank you for this tips. I’ve been doing self fitting and adjustment all these times and this video really correct my approaches thoroughly. Especially the temple ends part. ❤Now I can do it better at home and adjust it myself after ordering online.
Thanks you very much I've been trying to adjust my glasses since when I bought my glasses till now, then I saw your video and you have fixed my glasses adjustment problem 🙂
Even today, 15-11-2024, this is so helpful. I have just done exactly what you said, and my glasses fit perfectly. Thank you so much. This really means a lot to me.
I assume you can do something similar if the glasses are a little too tight at the temples? They feel like they should bow out about 1/3 of the way from the hinge.
@@warbyparker I don't think you understood the question, which is the problem I have. The "temple ends" go behind the ear (not really the "temples."). The "bow-out that this customer refers to I think is that the eyeglass frames on both sides press against the side of your head (not your ears). They feel like they are too narrow, or made for a smaller head.
Me too can someone tell us how to stop a pair of glasses from squeezing our head. They are too tight,I have a big head and also am sensitive to pressure.
I’ve been struggling with bent frames for weeks after accidentally sitting on them. While watching this video I was able to straighten and tighten everything up perfectly! Thank you!!
Thanks for the tips. I just got my first pair of Rx glasses and the frames were so crooked I could not wear them. I wasn't able to get back to the local store to get them adjusted for over a week and it would have been helpful if I found this video beforehand. Today I was actually searching on how eyeglass places adjust lenses. I was told if the glasses aren't right that can be done, I have progressives and can see far and fine print, but my comptuer screen (mid range) isn't any better than it was without glasses. I'm wondeering if my Rx is wrong or if the lenses can be adjusted enough to fix this issue.
How do you adjust the bridge/nosepads on a plastic frame? My new glasses are “V” shaped with the bridge resting on my nose and air underneath the nosepads. The home try on pair was not like this.
Excellent video and instructions for us dummies at this ;) haha Very well thought out as is everything from your company, great customer service and the buy a pair give a pair concept as well :) God bless.
Thanks for this video, I live in LI and don't have one near me to go to for adjustments and not ready to attempt to venture to Manhattan or get on the Long Island Railroad since people are still not truly practicing safe measures. I will give this a try. thank you for posting for those of us that can't get to a location for adjusting!
I have new glasses and asked the assistant to tighten the nose area. She adjusted the ear part and they are pressing into my ear. I went back and it was another assistant she looked annoyed and asked why I had returned. It is still not right so I will try this. Thankyou
what about adjusting the resistance of how fast they open/close? on mine there are screws that i’m able to tighten and i think that’s how but i find it difficult holding the glasses steady and being able to use a precision screwdriver at the same time
This is helpful. My new glasses are too tight on the sides - how would I adjust this? Either the temple corners need to open a little wider, or the temple arms need to curve out slightly? Or possibly there's too much curve in the lenses and flattening out the bridge would then give me a little temple breathing room? The home-try-on pair of the same frames fit me perfect, so I'm confident that the width of the frames fit my head. I think I just need an adjustment on my prescription pair that isn't covered in this video. Or should I just try and wear them for a couple of weeks to see if they adjust? I have acetate frames.
Thank you for this video! I usually wear contacts, but I'm required to wear my glasses for two weeks in preparation for LASIK surgery! My glasses are always falling off my face and this helped!
My optician refused to adjust the glasses that I purchased at Warby Parker. I have plastic frames and they slide down my nose. What are your suggestions? Thanks!
I just received my Warby Parker glasses, they are crooked and need adjusting and they have transition or light-responsive lenses. I have heard warnings against heating up the frame due to potential damage to the lenses. Is that the case with Warby Parker light-responsive lenses or can I use the method in the video without concern of causing lens damange?
For straightening the frames, she mentions the left side being too high or too low and adjusting the left temple of the frames but if you were to put the glasses in her hands on, she is adjusting the right temple? Am I completely confused? My glasses are crooked (too high on the left/too low on the right) and I'm not sure which way to adjust them based on the video.
Basically, you want to bend them in the opposite way of which they are misplaced. If they are already too high on one side, why would you bend them higher?
Great video! My glasses are brand new and do not sit even when on a flat service and when they’re upside down, so I know the temple arms at the hinges were made slightly uneven, what should I do? I feel like asking for a new pair because I hate the idea of having new glasses bent just because they were made crooked.
What about plastic frames sitting at an angle? The top line of my glasses sits closer to my face than the bottom, like this / | causing distortion and eye strain when looking down. Its like my ears arent high up enough. I'm ready to throw away my new glasses i cant see out of half of them.
my glasses sit in a way that the left side is FORWARD, if that makes sense. i have to keep pushing the left side closer to my eye every couple of minutes, but it always ends up slidin back to the uncomfortable position. any tips? it's super annoying
Thank you ! Finally understand! Even the clinic doesn’t adjust me glasses right when I keep going back 3-4 times. Finally can do this on my own
Because they are adjusting them and not putting it on your face to see the fit and then further adjusting it.
Wow you really saved the day! I went to my local optical shop for tightening and they way overdid it. The nosepads were making indententations on my nose and behind the ears. This method really works and beats driving 20 miles during a freezing cold, snowy day. Thank you!
Yeah - Its a Scary thing to do to bend the metal on the nosepads but once you do it once you realize how easy it is.
I know it’s not Covid anymore but this was really helpful. I’ve been to the eye dr 3 times to have my frames adjusted. They have almost been unwearable. This really helped my life

Thanks so much for sharing!! Super useful even outside of these times!
Decided to get a new pair but didn't realize they were a little too big. This helped a lot, thanks.

THANK YOU!! THIS WAS VERY HELPFUL! GOD BLESS YOU!
Thank you. Thank you! Did not know what to do with months of COVID restrictions & not being able to get to optician! Well done! Clearly explained!
K 🙏0 🎉🎉🎉 oo 🎉 oo
One of my lenses is too close to my eye, how would I adjust this please?
For the section about straightening uneven frames by pending the left temple corner, you said exactly the same thing for making frame higher or lower!
Not all heroes wear capes. Life saver!! Thank you!
Thanks you very much I've been trying to adjust my glasses since when I bought my glasses till now, then I saw your video and you have fixed my glasses adjustment problem 🙂
So happy to hear we could help!

I have the same issue with every pair of glasses.
Me too can someone tell us how to stop a pair of glasses from squeezing our head. They are too tight,I have a big head and also am sensitive to pressure.
For the temple adjustment, why would you push it down if the problem is that the troubled side is lower than it needs to be?
I’ve been struggling with bent frames for weeks after accidentally sitting on them. While watching this video I was able to straighten and tighten everything up perfectly! Thank you!!
So happy you're seeing comfortably again!
I have struggled with bent frames for years but finally found this video. 😂😂
best demonstration on you tube. thanks.
Amazing fix! My glasses don’t slide down my face anymore 🤓
Thank you so much. My glasses are much improved. It's a gentle touch for sure but safely done.

How do you adjust the bridge/nosepads on a plastic frame? My new glasses are “V” shaped with the bridge resting on my nose and air underneath the nosepads. The home try on pair was not like this.
When straightening the frame is it the arm that is being adjusted, or does the correction occur in the center of the frame?
This video is amazing. I just got my worries and I was trying to figure out how to bend them. Thanks so much for this video.
So happy we could help!
Thank you ! I was going to the optic clinic back and forth and they weren't able to adjust my glasses right
Thank you
Thank you, these instructions help so much! Appreciate it ☺️.
After calling Warby Parker and speaking with Rachel, this worked great. Thank you.
Excellent video and instructions for us dummies at this ;) haha Very well thought out as is everything from your company, great customer service and the buy a pair give a pair concept as well :) God bless.
Thank you so much for posting this!! 🙏

Please watch some actual news, not just the fear mongering narrative of CNN and Google news.
@2:27 she says to Brace the LEFT temple corner but shes bracing the right temple corner? SO do you adjust the right side if the left side is too low?
I have new glasses and asked the assistant to tighten the nose area. She adjusted the ear part and they are pressing into my ear. I went back and it was another assistant she looked annoyed and asked why I had returned. It is still not right so I will try this. Thankyou
Thanks so much! Tightening worked perfectly on the first try! WP Rocks! SW
Will this method work on acetate frames? Thank you
How about widening? The glasses are pushing in on my temples. (Crushing my head.)
What about the end temple twist? Getting it to sit against your head and not rest on your ear is the hard part
what about adjusting the resistance of how fast they open/close? on mine there are screws that i’m able to tighten and i think that’s how but i find it difficult holding the glasses steady and being able to use a precision screwdriver at the same time
Great lesson. Great Nails!
Does it work also on rubber frame glasses?
What should you adjust if you have plastic frames and they are leaving red marks on your nose? Thanks!

Lol it sounds like you have a small frame that does not fit you, what you said sounds like it would break them.
Can you adjust the temple end pieces on titanium frames the same way the acetate temple end pieces are adjusted in this video?
My new glasses are too tight on the side (temples). How can I adjust that?
That was simple but explained everything that's been bothering me. Thanks a lot
Thank you for this video! I usually wear contacts, but I'm required to wear my glasses for two weeks in preparation for LASIK surgery! My glasses are always falling off my face and this helped!
So happy we could help!
Thanks so much. I was bending wrong place and so afraid of breaking. Wouldn't have been able to afford new ones currently
Does it work on wireless frames
Super helpful, thanks!
Why would you need to heat up the glasses to fix a tilt if you're only really bending the metal hinge?
What about the screws in the corners??
Ohh wow! My sunglasses 🕶️ fit way better! Thank you!
Can you bend anywhere or only at that pivoted 45 degree angle part?
This is very helpful, thanks!
Can't you bend the right if its too high or low?
I had no idea that’s how you adjust the inner pads..thanks!
Will adjusting the nose pads stop leaving red marks or dents on my nose?
Very informative
There is a mall by me that has a WP store. I heard very good news about it. I got to get over there and see what they have.
Thank you so much!! This video just save my trip to my optometrist.
Will this void the warranty?
Great vid! Thanks 😃
My optician refused to adjust the glasses that I purchased at Warby Parker. I have plastic frames and they slide down my nose. What are your suggestions? Thanks!
Thank you so much! It worked perfectly on my new Zennis!
😂😂

My plastic frame is vary hard to wear .Because of its nose pads.How can I fix it
GOOD to KNOW on this difficult times .🥰👍😎Thank you!!!❤🙋♀️
Thank you so much I fixed my glases very quickly and easy🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
So if the left side is too high, you adjust the right side of the frame, according to your video?
Apologies for the confusion-you would adjust the left side!
For straightening the frames, she mentions the left side being too high or too low and adjusting the left temple of the frames but if you were to put the glasses in her hands on, she is adjusting the right temple? Am I completely confused? My glasses are crooked (too high on the left/too low on the right) and I'm not sure which way to adjust them based on the video.
Basically, you want to bend them in the opposite way of which they are misplaced. If they are already too high on one side, why would you bend them higher?
As far as I could make out she had the glasses upside down so to speak. So she was adjusting the left temple and pushing up for down and down for up.
How can I adjust glasses whose arms are splayed out too wide?
Hye there, is it possible for me to adjust the fix nosepads on my plastic frame?
Great video!
My glasses are brand new and do not sit even when on a flat service and when they’re upside down, so I know the temple arms at the hinges were made slightly uneven, what should I do?
I feel like asking for a new pair because I hate the idea of having new glasses bent just because they were made crooked.
I don’t understand why they don’t fix this after they put in the lenses and fine the glasses do the customer
This is very helpful thanks!
Wonderful video, thank you!
Thank you so much. It was very helpful to me.
Thank you! best video I watched on this!
This is great....who is the presenter and does she have an agent?
What about plastic frames sitting at an angle? The top line of my glasses sits closer to my face than the bottom, like this / | causing distortion and eye strain when looking down. Its like my ears arent high up enough. I'm ready to throw away my new glasses i cant see out of half of them.
Who knew a random women on UA-cam would be more help then my opticians
Uh she’s not some random woman - Warby Parker sells glasses
I swear men are so f***in weird 🙄
Does it have to be boiled water?
Thank you for tip. It saves me time from visiting our optometrist.
I freaking love you! This worked fantastic on my plastics frames
Love your video and your glasses . I’m 66 years old and told myself ( I’m still working) , that I would buy some super nice W.P. I’m in .
hey will these work for metal frames?
Thanks for great explanation ☺️
Happy to help!
Hiya. I just sent back my try on at home box. Does WP have spring hinges for eyeglasses??
Such a helpful video. My classes have been loose for quite some time and this video has helped me fit them to my face again! Thank you!
thank you so much, this has been helpful to me 💕
My glasses are Digging in the back of my ear how do you prevent that from happening?
Saved me a whole lotta money love i appreciate you
What's the towel for?
so that the heat from the bowl doesn't demage the coatings on your table
Quick correction for new specks, thank you!
Thank you so much. Your technique worked so well god bless
I needed to see this it was so helpful, thank you so much !!
Excellent tutorial. Now I love mt glasses! Thx!
my glasses sit in a way that the left side is FORWARD, if that makes sense. i have to keep pushing the left side closer to my eye every couple of minutes, but it always ends up slidin back to the uncomfortable position. any tips? it's super annoying
Temples to tight against my head suggest you cover this situation with another video
Does loosening at the ear relieve tightness near the temple? Want to confirm before I try this.
