There is a loop that goes into the strap opening. Open the loop so it looks like an O. Slip the bottom into the opening for the strap.Now grab the sides of the loop and push in until the opposite side of the O slips in. Shake the strap a little and it should not be in fully

I agree with Dr. Tractenberg - try moving the glass retaining brackets. I had no problem.

I had the same problem with the straps and had to get a new one. So I don't think so. It's the weak point of this product, unfortunately.

To change the lenses, just make sure the narrow end is facing away from the nose piece. First insert that end into the top slot and firmly press away from the nose piece and up until it "popps" into place. As for the insert glasses that came with, I just discarded them. I couldn't figure that one out.

No clue, I threw the darn strap away, I know how but it's really wimpy and isn't any good. Sorry if i didnt help any, best if luck with the strap

I resorted to using super-glue to glue the head-band attachment to the headset. I don't think there is any way to repair the over-the-ear attachment because the plastic clips break and they are to small to glue together.

well the very purpose of a "retainer" strap would be defeated if they were too easy to remove. THe strap can be removed but it isnt easy and probably not something you want to be doing often. getting them on is also a bit of work. i have a set on my cycling glasses...they have never been taken off

My son is the same in both eyes, so we never had the issue. However, in looking at my son's goggles, it looks like you could take them apart between the lenses with the interchangeable nose piece, then feed the strap through where it connects to the eye piece, remove one of the eyepieces and build your own pair of goggles with different powers. I highly recommend these goggles for recreational wear. The only problems we have had is that they do fog up and they don't stay on well for competitive swimming.

I don't have a pair in front of me right now, but I did look at that. It looked like I could unscrew the inside cover from the outside cover. It has three tiny button batteries in it. It'll cost more to replace the batteries than the cost of the glasses.

They are for me. There are roll down rubber cups on the oculars that when folded down make use with glasses better, but not as good as without glasses. My solution has been to use a neck chain with my glasses. I just let them drop and hang around my neck while using the binoculars with my naked eyes.

I remove the objective end covers them. I kept them on, but I lost one on the objective end. Vortex sent me a replacement at no cost. so now I remove them when out birding. The ocular covers connect to the strap.

Thank you for asking and I will do the best I can to explain. It is not difficult, but it will will take a minute or so to complete. Start by carefully observing how the two looped ends have been combined into one long strap. This is the most important part because you must take the strap apart and attach each end separately to the binocular and then remember how to put the strap together back together. Observe how it is put together and carefully pull the the long loose end of the strap through and out of the clasp and then free of the black plastic rectangle attached to the shorter end. You now will have the strap in two pieces. Now find the holes, one on each side the the binoculars, and loop a strap to each side. Simply put the string loop in the binocular hole and the pull the loose end of the same strap back through the string loop. After you have attached one of the two pieces of strap to each side of the binocular, attached the two strap pieces back together in reverse order of the way you took them apart. Easy peasy right? Don't kick me. I am old and bruise easily.

Any of the little kits you can get to repair eye glasses will work. They usually include a few sizes of tiny screws and screwdrivers and one is bound to work. These only cost a few bucks and can be found at most department type stores. I have even seen them at the grocery checkout aisle. OR you could just go to any jewelry/watch counter where you can buy the batteries and they will install them for you right there.

The eyelets probably are strong enough, but beware of the stitching around the shoulder strap.

I bought the strap locally in Australia. Not sure where you're based, but for USA try here; http://www.tusa.com/us-en/VIEW_Swim/Corrective_Lenses

The same thing happened to mine. I contacted the company and they quickly sent me a new pair. Apparently the glue that they were using wasn't strong enough. But, the company has been great about making it right.

The optics are top notch but the glue on the rubber eye pieces failed which did cause it to spin freely. I have spoken to Vortex and was told it's been fixed.
