Why do my glasses slide down or hurt behind my ears?

Almost always a fit or build issue — the wrong size, heavy materials, or hinges that have loosened. A proper adjustment or a better-built frame fixes it.

Are titanium frames worth it?

For most people yes. Titanium is very light and strong, resists corrosion, and holds an adjustment, so it stays comfortable far longer than cheap metal or plastic.

What are flex hinges?

Hinges with a spring that lets the temple arms flex outward and return. They move with your face, stay snug without pinching, and don't loosen like basic screwed hinges.

Can you adjust frames I already own?

Come in and we'll take a look. Many comfort problems are a quick adjustment away, and if the frame can't be saved we'll help you find one that fits.
