Troubleshooting
Frames feel too tight or too loose
Take the glasses to a qualified optician. They can adjust the temples and nose pads for a perfect, comfortable fit.
Smudges or fingerprints on lenses
Clean the lenses gently with a microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaner. Regular cleaning is recommended for transparent frames.
Scratches on lenses
Unfortunately, lens scratches cannot be repaired. Replacement lenses will be necessary. Clean frames carefully to avoid further damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These glasses come as frames and will require prescription lenses to be fitted by a qualified optician. The optician will ensure the lenses are correctly installed according to your child's prescription and the frame's measurements (e.g., 46-16 mm). Ensure the fit is comfortable for your child before leaving the optician.
Compatibility: These frames are designed to accept standard prescription lenses. Compatibility with specific lens types (e.g., progressive, high-index) should be discussed with your optician.
Care: To maintain the glasses:
- Cleaning Lenses: Use a soft microfiber cloth and a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid using paper towels or abrasive materials, which can scratch the lenses.
- Cleaning Frames: Wipe the acetate frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or submerging the frames in water.
- Storage: When not in use, store the glasses in a protective case to prevent scratches and damage. Keep them away from extreme heat, which can warp the acetate.
