Good afternoon, everybody. I hope you remember that I wear specs because I am far - sighted, and I have a new pair of eyeglasses.
But then, there was a time that right lens just fell down my bed and the right nose pad also dropped on the floor. I had to search for it until I saw one of our dogs chewing something. I had the hunch it was the nose pad.
Yes it was. But I can't attach it again. (My sister brought the same specs to an optical clinic when the left nose pad fell off. The technician placed a new one.) Even Bulldog and Mighty Bond can't do it. So my nose bridge sometimes hurt because the metal pricks the skin.
That is why my pair of eyeglasses is not straight and the right lens is lower than the left.
I will find a solution for this. Hopefully it won't hurt when I have fixed it now.

i placed a small cut of an eraser but it cannot attach itself in the steel. i tried several times last night but the eraser falls off.

@ridingbet This is something I understand, but those little things are surely for sale also in your country. Here they are for sale in every store that sells eyeglasses or sunglasses.

@ridingbet I think you can ask somebody to fix it in an Opto Clinic. It wasn't that pricey. Is it?

when the left nose pad was removed, my nose bridge usually had wound. this right one, there is no fresh wound but it annoys me because my glasses is not straight. it is "tabingi".

i hope you can find ways to fix your glasses my friend. I could just imagine how painful that metal is without the nose patch.

yes, it is painful when the left nose pad was removed. the right one is just fine, but the site is getting reddish now.

If only you were near our place. We got at least two Ophthalmologist here and they also selling different variety of glasses. Better have some one fix it or buy a new one.

@ridingbet Probably not. I think it’s part of the nice service. My eye doctor repaired a few sunglasses for me at no charge.

when the left nose pad was detached, my sister paid for the new nose pad. when i went to let the technician do this right nose pad, it was free of charge. i do not know now if i have to pay when i bring my specs back with the same problem
