Getting Used to and Caring for Spectacles
​
If you didn't get a professional fitting for your new spectacles, check the fit to avoid damage. Return for a fitting if they’re loose.
​​You should have confirmed they are free of defects; warranty excludes damages from negligence or wear and tear.
​​Note: Do not drive immediately; adapt at home for up to two weeks, starting at low speeds.

Getting Used to Your Glasses

-
Wear Gradually: Start in the morning, increasing use daily.

Adaptation Period: Mild blurriness or headaches are normal. Contact us if they persist beyond one week (single focus) or two weeks (multifocal).
-
Persistent Discomfort: May indicate underlying eye or general health, or brain issues. Contact us immediately.
-
3-Month Prescription Warranty: If adjustments are needed, we’ll reassess and replace lenses at no cost within three months from the date of initial prescription.
​
Caring for Spectacles
Spectacles can break suddenly from accidents or weaken over time due to wear and tear, and mishandling. This can be frustrating and costly. Glory Eyecare offers a scheme to ease ownership worries—ask us for details. Here are tips to prevent breakage.
​​​​​​​​​​​​
-
Extreme Temperatures: Avoid leaving glasses in a car or exposing them to temperatures above 60°C, as heat can damage lenses and frames.
-
Storage: Store glasses in a hard case to prevent damage. Avoid pressure when closing, and don’t place them in pockets without a case. Consider buying multiple cases for convenience.
-
Prevent Scratches: Keep glasses away from hard or rough surfaces to prevent lens and frame scratches.
-
Hinge & Nose Pad Care: Avoid hanging glasses on your collar or head. Use both hands when putting them on or taking them off. Don’t test spring hinges unnecessarily.
-
Prevent Damage: Avoid wearing glasses in situations where they may be hit or while reading in bed.
-
Check Your Seat: Always check your seat before sitting to avoid breaking glasses.
-
Avoid Smudges: Wash hands before handling glasses. Grip frames only, and protect lenses from grease, makeup, and oils. Remove glasses in bad weather and before sleeping.
-
Cleaning: Rinse with cold water or soak in water with 2 drops of mild dish washing liquid if oily. Dry with a microfiber cloth (wash regularly). Avoid tissues and dish towels.
-
Tighten Screws: Keep a screwdriver handy to check and tighten loose screws regularly, e.g. quarterly or earlier, to prevent lenses and nose pads come off and disappear.
-
Professional Adjustment: Seek professional help for adjustments. Avoid super glue, as it voids the warranty.
-
Right Eyewear: Choose sports eyewear for workouts or durable memory material frames. For children, consider contact lenses or sport eyewear.
