Ouch, Nose Pads Can Suck. What To Do When Glasses Hurt Your Nose!

[@NoneMorning]

Sir I just really wanna thank you for these videos. I have diagnosed OCD and ADHD, and when my glasses become crooked in even the slightest, I become incredibly hyperfixated on every contact point of them and how they feel on my face, how they look sitting on my face compared to how they feel, if I can evenly see the rim in each eye, etc, and I adjust them until I inevitably break them.
Last year I went through 4 pairs of glasses. I’m not kidding, and it becomes so frustrating. Ive been going through this forever now and I’m not sure you explained these fixes that much differently than my own optometrist, but I don’t know! You’re what made it finally click.
You just saved me from stress and almost breaking my nose pads off for the millionth time again. Thank you, seriously so much!

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

That’s tough all around, anything we become hyperfixated on can be a bother. Regardless, I’m thrilled this helped you find some peace in getting your glasses comfortable and finding a happy place with them 😁😎🥂 Happy New Year!!

[@stephenm5000]

The thing about going to the optician for adjustment is that often, time spent is only a couple of minutes. However, the pain will only kick in after an hour or two of wearing them, so multiple visits and making a nuisance of yourself is simply irritating for all concerned...

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Unfortunately, you're not wrong. That's a lot of the original inspiration behind doing these videos, creating more access and knowledge for all on basic adjustments 🙂 we all have off days or adjustments that aren't just quite right, or even frames that get knocked out of whack by looking at them wrong (looking at you rayban). 😂

[@stephenm5000]

@@ThatGlassesGuy03 I have just picked up a pair of glasses (VariFocals at over £500) and am now on 3rd return visit. 1st for alignment (sat too low), 2nd & 3rd for pinching nose pads, and right ear piece. I wish they could just scan my head, put glasses into a machine, and have them adjusted automatically by a nice computer LOL 🤣

I always joke the algorithm only lives in my head 😂 (though a company called 3DNA makes eyewear through 3d facial scans, so in theory those are perfectly adjusted at time of production 🙊🙉🙈" if only we could create a machine similiar to alignment tech for cars 😂
I would also add if they went from too low to pinching they raised it up too damn much throwing off the adjustment/balance and the LENS needs to be redone with the proper height... but thats just me from thousands of miles away and very little information 😂 could be well within range and other tweaks just need made to realign the balance point 🙃

I got a set of pliers for glasses from AliExpress and I will do the adjustments myself because my store is TOO scared to do it because I own titanium rimless glasses.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Wow! So many places are afraid to mess with rimless and I just don’t get it… I’ve actually only held off on doing a video dedicated to rimless adjustment because some of them do require specialty pliers specific for holding the mounting to the lens to prevent damage… but you bring up a great point that a lot of these tools can be had pretty cheap if you’re willing to wait, and most people that own rimless own them for a LONG time. Maybe it’s time 🙂

[@thesilentgeneration]

My main problem was not addressed and there may not be a solution. I have a very thin bony bridge. Adjustments do not work. Oversized bridge pads do not work. I have sewn soft rubber cups over the pads, but that does not work. It works better than anything else, but still leaves a large red area that aches. My pads are adjustable. Contact lenses are out of the question for me as my eyes are deep set, and I'm 78 years old and do not want the aggravation. So other than some sort of band over my head holding the glasses off my nose, I don't know what to do. Any ideas? Thanks.

[@PrinceOfCola]

Do glasses with nosepads distribute weights differently? I am someone who finds nosepads uncomfortable and am wondering if it is because weight is all on the nose due to the pads?
Thanks for all the info on your channel.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Depends on the frames you’re comparing of course, but in general a well fitted acetate will distribute the weight over a larger area. Poor pad adjustment and pads always getting bent out of shape as well as cheap I’ll balanced frames are the most common pain points of metals, almost all of that disappears on the higher end except a few brands.

[@heynedajoon]

I have expensive lightweight frames and lenses and they hurt. Had them adjusted many times, I think it is the temples being too thin. With skinny temples all the weight is going to my nose. What do you think?

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Tough to say, but often times the balance is off on these types of frames, especially with higher powers making it really hard to get pressure off the nose. Not necessarily because the temples are thin.

[@Oonagh72]

1. The arms could be too long causing them to slide forward.
2. Put a bandaid across your nose. Then put on your glasses. Wear that for a day. See if you have less pain. The bandaid causes friction to reduce slipping.
3. You just may need a narrower bridge. This is espy true if you have a flatter nose.
4. Go to Walmart or something, try on frames until you find the perfect fit. Don’t worry about your prescription. Then go over every aspect that makes them perfect. Now compare them to your current glasses. Maybe you can find what needs to be adjusted
My credentials: been wearing glasses since the age of five almost half century. Have an “unusual” prescription which makes buying glasses a challenge, and glasses heavy. Om top of the fact the best glasses for me are usually metal and I am allergic. I can wear titanium. I also have a wide face, flat nose, and super oily skin. So I’m usually forced get close enough and muddle through.

[@katherinerand1892]

Finally got my glasses comfy then my daughter knocked them and one of the nose pieces came off. I went in thinking a quick fix which it seemed. Opticians put new nose pads on and I went on my way. This was Wednesday and it’s Friday but after I got home I felt sore, red marks where the nose pads sit. I am beyond. Frustrated. I went through this when I first got my glasses but it got better. Now I feel back to square one. I go back Tuesday to see whet can be done but I don’t have high hopes. High prescription. The three looking areas too on them. Anything I need to ask them or get them to do to hopefully make them comfortable again? I hate glasses!

[@blt2421]

What adjustments can be made if the nose itself is off center? My narrow (15 to 16), low bridge nose sits slightly more left. As a result, the frame pulls left, and the right nose pad and right arm pulls hard against my face, and it makes entire my right side hurt. Does this mean plastic frames w/fixed nose pads are off-limits? Can I even wear wireframes w/adjustable nose pads? Hoping you can help!

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

The pad arms can be shifted to offset that pretty easily. Just move each one over slightly so they're offset and the frame is centered. I wouldn't generally recommend an acetate frame with built in bridge for this unless you have a true artisan of an optician that can make it fit properly (there are a variety of ways to do it, but way too complex for yourube diy)

[@user-uo2ts8rt4f]

When ears are different heights that makes for an odd fit for the nose pads. Do you know if the optician takes this into consideration when they measure for the lens optics?

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

I would love to say yes! Unfortunately, it doesn't always work that way, and if lenses aren't compensated designs it's such a small difference it would have essentially no affect. I can tell you I absolutely take this into account, in both adjusting and measuring for the lenses.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

That’s tougher to manage and finding alternate ways to make the fit work (or finding alternate frame options that don’t rely primarily on the ears to sit level) are required here. That’s a more advanced skill set than the average optician can usually muster (though most will readily accept the challenge).
There are some brands that can work really well here like specialized swissflex frames or some wilder stuff from parasite eyewear.

Little different ball game there, some more advanced fitting techniques can be applied to manipulate the bridge and balance of the frame, but that’s outside the average DIY capacity.

why does pushing the right legs relieve pressure from the right side of the nose bridge?

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

So based on the assumptions there, right nose side red but everything else is fitting properly position wise. That temple bowed out can cause more pressure on that side of the nose as more weight is resting on the nose than the ear from the created imbalance :). Bringing it back in will get the balance back in place. Same if it were the left.

Hey! So, it will have an affect, sure. But sort of depends on the fit of the rest of the glasses in general. If you make the opposite adjustment to that side the glasses will likely be uncomfortable all around. Sort of tough to say from afar and that specifically.

Does removing(breaking the pads) them effect your eyesight?

[@alaynac1610]

no because they dont affect ur prescription at all, nose pads are just there to make the glasses not slide off as easier

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Sorry alaynac, you're not entirely correct here, but it depends on the fit of the frame and the power of the lenses. 1mm of movement in any direction will create roughly 0.1D of prism power for every diopter of lens power. On average just snipping off pads can drop a frame over 6mm. Creating the affect of almost a diopter of yoked prism (not inherently bad) for even as low as 1DIopter of power.
I'll also go further to say the nose pads have very little to do with keeping your glasses from sliding off, except in the role they play in keeping the frame properly balanced so it isn't front heavy and impossible to keep on (yet another reason not to remove them... dropping the front that far down will absolutely end with the glasses always slipping).
As for Chris.. I wouldn't advise it due to the points above. Find another pad/adjustment combination that works for you, or just get a new frame all together without pads :) if nothing else, the frame will be horribly uncomfortable in this state.

Most likely it’s loose on that one side (temple arm splayed out too wide creating an uneven pressure on the bridge) the temple that is splayed out will be resting more heavily on the nose as well as sitting closer to the face on one side. Here’s the video you need:

[@justmorenoise]

What if you get pressure point on the top of the nose not from pads but the frame touching ?

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

Just a bad fit overall if that’s the case. Sometimes this can be fixed by adjusting the balance point of the frame, or tweaking the pad area, that’s assuming you’re talking about a plastic frame with no pads? Or if it’s a frame with pads and the frame itself is touching your nose the pads need some MAJOR tweaking to be back to normal and fit properly. Usually in that case they’re flattened close to the frame and spread way too wide. Bring them back in and up and then adjust to the nose itself. This one’s a bit tougher without seeing it.

Maybe if you hadn’t been rude about getting an answer Sergio ;). And just as I’ve explained to you before.
At this point it’s about the overall balance and design. You mentioned in your case the pads are spread out as wide as they can go, that’s a problem. With the pads as wide as they’ll go and the nose dropped down, most of the weight of the frame is resting on the bridge. Your options here are adjust that so the nose is back higher and putting some of the weight back onto the ears, raising the temples upwards and adding retroscopic tilt to being the balance point rearward, or selecting another frame that better fits you and balanced properly with lenses mounted 😎.

Sounds like you’ve picked up skills better than the average optician for sure. 😂 I can’t tell you specifically for your situation any further than that, sorry. These principles have worked for me for hundreds of personal pairs and tens of thousands of clients pairs all at a higher expectation level than most are held accountable to. I wish I had a magic bullet for you from across the seas but there’s only so much I can offer without physically being there.

What’s giving a 404 error? The video shows and plays just fine on my end 🥶

[@TheFantom_X]

I just avoid glasses with pads.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

That's one way to handle it, but an I'll fit pad area on an acetate can be just as bad 😝

[@davidelucifora8748]

Dude get to the point tho.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

The problem is, every half whit that touches glasses is giving and fitting the “to the point” answer. You won’t get it done right that way, and that’s exactly what I’m here to fix 😎. So sit down chill and enjoy. Cheap fast and easy is never the right answer.

I know.. normally youtube handles it automatically but sometimes it just doesn't work 😞

I appreciate you making this video but you're only talking about nose pads instead of telling us how to remove nose dents and get our nose back in shape.
By the way did you know that glasses can distort and change the nose shape of a chld leading that child to have a crooked nose?
It happened to my sister and I'm so upset about glasses and I got dent marks which not only left dark pigmented marks on my nose bridge but it also flattened my nose bone/cartilage to some degree that it looks bad.
To anyone looking to avoid such things I recommend using something else than glasses.
Glasses are bad.

[@dakotasheehan9804]

Don't have to worry about my nose looking messed up if I don't take off the glasses. Checkmate, glasses denier.

[@anewme5140]

@@dakotasheehan9804 You're being silly.
I'm not a glasses denier.If people wear glasses and they work well for them I'm fine with that.If you are wearing glasses and are fine with hiding your glasses dents with your glasses as it's your choice I respect that too.
Regarding the bad or negative effects of glasses, I was just stating what they did to my little sister and and me, in the hope to find a solution to our issue and also hoping that my conment might be if help to people who went to the same issue.
I respect people who wear glasses and people who don't wear them.
You caling me a glasses denier is just stating the obvious fact that you have lots of prejudices against people for the tiniest reasons and that you are shortsighted regarding your personality and not openminded at all.
Among the many positive effects of glasses, I wanted to point out that they can also have negative effects, especially in regards to what they did to my sister and me.
Do you think my heart doesn't ache while seeing how the tiny beautiful nose of mu little sister got crooked? My heart aches and I feel like crying for her.
Do you think I enkoy habing dents on my nose? If you enjoy this and are just hiding them with your glasses making them worse it's your choice not mine.I don't enjoy having dents on my nose at all, I want them to dissappear and I want my sister's nose to be straight and healthy again.
Please God help us!
Anyway I'll not be bothering to argue with you since talking to you would be a waste of my time, so don't reply, I won't answer you anyway.
I just wrote this answer for people not to misunderstand me, that's all.
Have a nice day silly checkmate guy!
