- 1). Look into a mirror with your glasses on and move the glasses on your face until the center of the lenses are directly in front of your pupils. This is the optical center of the glasses, and where they should sit.
- 2). Adjust the nose pads of the glasses so that the lenses sit directly in front of the pupils. Pushing the nose pads together will raise the glasses while pushing them apart will lower them. Make small, incremental adjustments to the nose pads, trying the glasses on again after every adjustment.
- 3). Adjust the temple tip, located at the end of the glasses, if there are no nose pads on the glasses. Warm plastic temple tips under water for 20 to 30 seconds to warm up the material before adjusting. Bend the temple tip inward to bring the glasses tighter to the face and outward to loosen them. Adjust the temple tips so that their ends align straight up, rather than down if the glasses sit too low on the nose, and the opposite if the glasses sit too high.
- 4). Run the plastic temples under cold water after each adjustment to set the plastic.
