This guide provides a simple, effective method to adjust the fit of eyeglasses using household tools, specifically a hair dryer and pliers. Over time, glasses frames can bend or warp due to drops, tight storage, or daily wear. This repair process helps restore frames to their original shape, improving comfort and fit.
For this fix, you'll need a hair dryer, pliers, and a cloth or towel to protect the frame finish. Note that using heat on plastic frames can help soften them for adjustment, while metal frames require gentle handling to prevent over-bending. Before beginning, consider any coatings or delicate parts of the frames to avoid damage.
This guide works best for minor adjustments. For more serious repairs, consult a professional to avoid potential damage.
