Is this product good for the broken plastic frame of eyeglasses? The eyeglasses is broken on the temple leg.

I imagine it would depend on the thickness of the plastic, if it is as thin as wire frames probably not, but if it is the thicker type probably yes. it would not look clean though, you would have to have a clump of it and go over both sides. now plastic glue might do wonders as it actually causes plastics to re bond

It could work but you will have a white plastic blob at the join point. Have you already tried Super Glue? That is a clear product and won't show as much.

I think it could work. One thing I used it on was the broken plastic frame of my rearview mirror on my van and it worked really well. It adhered really well to the surrounding plastic and seems durable. You can sand and paint it as well, which I did.

it works great on my prescription glasses. It works better if they are clean though.

Yes I think it would work for glasses also, as long as they are not to tall.

Ohhh very sorry to hear that, absolutely it shouldn't behave that way at all, it says things went wrong during the shipment and may be glasses were displaced inside or even broken. My advice would be that Return it ASAP and get a replacement, why to take risk.

Yes, sort of. Directly popping out one lense will likely damage the frame. If you use a jewelers screw driver to loosen/remove the screw holding the frame together and then remover the lense, tighten the screw and you have a one lense pair of glasses. A small drop of maybe clear nail polish will hold the screw in place. Removing them makes them likely to loosen. After "gluing" the screw you will NOT be able to remove it in the future without difficultly and potentially damaging screw or frame. Removing a lense will significantly weaken the frame and great caution must be exercised to avoid damaging the glasses (or now glass with frame). Yes, sort of.

This is made to protect your eyes. The only protection for a broken nose is not to risk it playing for a while. Sorry.

I'm not sure about glasses. I used it for an acrylic fish tank. But what I do know is, if the scratches are deep it required sanding with sandpaper first. If sanding is required then you want to work up to a really fine grit paper (minimum of 2000 grit). if you think the lenses are plastic then it should work. Or if the glasses are ruined it's a fairly cheap way to try to save them. I've been really impressed with the product and on plastic it does work well just not for deep scratches like they say stage 3 is for. I've also used it to restore headlights and worked great!

While this is a terrific little tool, it would not be suitable for eyeglass repair. The bits are contained in the stem of the tool (in the screwdriver part not the handle)

I have never used it for eyeglasses, so I can't accurately say how it would do on them.I use it primarily for my retainers, and for jewelry.

It is not any better other than it in not broken. It took quite an effort for my ring to get cracked. I have used the repaired lens with the plastic mount for nearly a year now without any issues. Good luck. (it was much better and cheaper than a new lens.)It took me about 1 hour to replace it. -- tiny springs and screws -- 7 screws if I remember.

Yes. The eyeglass holder is weighted and would not fall over. My glasses fit perfectly.

I am not sure. You have a bit of space using those glasses so maybe if you have smaller frame glasses it can work.Hope that helps :]

This product is very good but glass itself is not really strong. So I think it won't be a good idea.

They're not designed to fit over glasses, and the gasket doesn't have gaps for the temple pieces, although that can be easily addressed. I would say no, they're not going to work well with most glasses.

Maybe with a little work. The foam on the inside appears to put a little pressure on my temples, but I think if you glasses fit close to your temples they might work, or you may need to cut a small area of foam out to make them work. Sorry I dont wear glasses so I may not be the best source for this.

The bits are in the shaft. The smallest is a number 1, not small enough for eyeglass repair.

Pretty sure it would be OK. Mirror has full sides and back covering of plastic. The glass used in the mirror doesn't seem to be a brittle or fragile kind. We haven't dropped ours hard but they have had a few knocks. The support arm just bends or snaps free and you just need to push it back together again. It is well made and is not flimsy or fragile.
