How To Bend Plastic Glasses Frames

Here is how to bend plastic glasses frames. To reshape and bend plastic glasses frames, you need to get them warm. The easy way to do this is to soak them in a bowl of hot water. It doesn't have to be boiling hot. It should be cool enough that it doesn't burn your hands. After the glasses frames are warmed up, for 30 seconds or more in the hot water, slowly bend them to the shape you want. Keep putting the plastic glasses frames back in the hot water between bends so they stay hot. Keep on bending your glasses frames until you get them into the shape you want.

I did exactly what you said to do, and 60 seconds later my glasses fit perfectly. Great video. No B S, and straight to the point. Thanks!

Life saver mate, first pair of plastic prescriptions... and they have never fitted well. Saved me a trip into the city, cheers!

Thanks man. Simple straight forward instructions. Fixed my wife's glasses in 5 minutes. Very helpful.

My glasses were too tight... thought I'd have to buy new frames. Now they fit comfortably. Brilliant! Thank you!

I had to do the opposite. My glasses kept falling and i kept getting tension headaches (never get them). Totally worked. Kept at it until they didn't fall off my face. Took 1 hr because i was being extra careful since they are my only Rx glasses. I have one suggestion. Place glasses in the freezer/fridge for 2 min after molding them in hot water. This will make plastic hard so the now malleable frame wont re-configure as plastic cools

My glasses are thick and I was surprised at how HARD I had to bend them. Took me a few tries to get it right, but it worked. Great video

You are the hero of the day!
I have a pair of expensive sunglasses I bought two years ago and never wore because they wear so loose they were uncomfortable. Honestly, this was to easy, and I am super grateful you took the time to show us!

I did this to my regular glasses. I've had them for about four years now, but I neglected them for personal reasons up until late last year. I found that they were incredibly tight and left deep marks by the root of my nose.

After trying this method, but with slightly hotter water and for about three times as long, I found that bending them became rather easy. Definitely recommended!

Thank you Sir. Adjusted the curve on a new pair of Oakley Turbines. I did boil water in a kettle, poured into a bowl and cooled for 2 minutes. Bent slowly at bridge. Cooled in bowl of ice water. Worked flawlessly. No streaking. No Damage. You rock! C.

Worked brilliantly.
Used a kettle, poured it into cooled glass so it wouldn't be at boiling point.

I bought some custom sunglasses and they barely touched my head lol...
They're nice and snug now. Thanks!

Yo! I just bought two pair of glasses from an eBay dealer and they came all bent and out of wack. Knee knee-jerk reaction was to just send them back - annoyed that it was a scam but I decided to do some research and your video was exactly what I needed. Now I have $25.00 Kenneth Cole frames that replace my old glasses- down from $350.00. Not bad! Thanks for the great work.

Thank you so much! I bought eyeglasses that started hurting my ears and giving me severe migraines. Now I know what to do! Great video!

[vloggerazzi]

Thank you very much!!

This worked really well for my back up eyeglasses (TR90 material). They were backups because I never like how the arms felt too short. After adjusting them with this method, now I can wear them no issues.

The pair of eyeglasses I just received in the mail today have the same problem (arms bend too soon) but it has a rubberized coating on the plastic. With some complaining their glasses are turning white, I think I will try the hair dryer method instead. If I can get them adjusted too, it'll be like having two new pairs of eyeglasses.

Dude you just saved me $40, much love man.

[snipesy]

Thanks for the tutorial man!

Got my first pair of plastic glasses today and the arms came a little too bent. Worked a charm

[pithford]

wow! you saved me! I ordered a ray ban clubmaster and ordered the 140mm instead of 145mm so they didn't fit well, so I made this trick and now they fit perfectly! you are the best.

[Thorya]

Perfect. Tried the hairdryer method first with no effect at all. But this worked perfectly! Thanks!
