How do I put the lenses back into my eyeglasses?!
Question: How do I put the lenses back into my eyeglasses!?
They're those half-wireless ones, with thin metal frames across the top and corners, and what looks like nylon fishing-line along the bottom of the lens!. My toddler popped both lenses out and I know there HAS to be some trick to getting them back in! Can you give me the step-by-step!?
Taking them to the optician is a gigantic hassle for me -- please don't bother to suggest that!. I'd like to attempt it myself first, with your help =)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
I would suggest next time you see your Optician, you ask them to show you how to do it!.
You need a piece of small ( approx!.) 4"long by 1" wide some what sturdy ribbon!. (all rimless eye wear comes with some, to the optician)
Fit the lens in along the top of the frame!. Slip the ribbon (centered) over the fish line and fold so you can hold both ends of ribbon at the same time!. Starting at the (temporal) out side of the frame, slide the ribbon (toward the nose side) while fitting the fish line into the groove of the lens bottom!. Once in all the way around, carefully slide the ribbon out!.
tips!. you can pinch (top/bottom) of lens b/t frame and fish line while starting to slide ribbon!. then move fingers so you are pinching where fish line is already holding lens so it doesn't slip out!.
do not fray ribbon b/t lens and fish line!.
good luck
