Eyeglass Nose

I have clear nosepiecs on my glasses. They get greenish on the inside. I've heard that it's acid from my skin, but I'm wondering if it's moisture, too. How do I keep it from happening?
I don't know if this is the category to ask this question in, if it's not, I'll change it.

I'm always trying to avoid green gunk. D:

Get a q-Tip or a toothpick and get all of the gunk out. If you want, wash the nose pieces often with a moist Q-Tip so that dirt and other things aren't constantly plaguing them.

I have a really oily nose, so I'm always trying to keep them clean.

Hope this helps!

How can I move it up/down in/out to adjust nose piece to my likening?

you need a pairs of pliers. use them on the metal piece that attaches the nose pad to the frame. then just bend it around. you could go to an optical store most places adjust frames for free and you'll be less likely to have it broken.

The nose pad on one side broke off but there is a screw that attached it. I want to know where I can buy a new pad so I can fix it myself.
Thanks for any help.

this has happened to me many times. most places will fix it free for you. i guess they hope to get you as a customer some day. my present glasses have a screw for the nose pads. i bought them at costco.. they will fix them for you if there is one close to you. you don't need to be a member, just tell them you are going to the eyeglass repair. i only ever had 1 place charge me for this repair, and it was one buck.

Silicone nose pads attach to the existing pads on your glasses
These pads are not replacements for pads on wire rimmed glasses
Keeps glasses comfortably in place

I'm looking to buy a new pair of eye glasses. I don't know if I should get a traditional eyeglasses with nose pads or a modern plastic frame.

Nose pads do allow for more adjustments. If the bridge of a plastic frame is too wide for your nose, the glasses will never stay in place like they should, they'll always slide down. Nose pads can be adjusted to fit the bridge of your nose so that they sit where they should without sliding. If a plastic frame is the right size though, then they should not slide, but they do stretch out over time and will need to be adjusted every few months.

There are so many different frames out there right now that you can find stylish frames with nosepads. Many brands have metal frames with nose pads that feature bright colors or thick metal so that they dont look so traditional.

Go to a few stores and look at the frame selection and have an optician help you pick out some plastic and some metal frames and you can decide which is more comfortable for you.

Is there a way to clead the nose pads, of two or three year old eyeglasses that have yellowed?

Jorst ... You local Wal-Mart or any decent optometry office will change these for you for about $2 or $3. If you smile and ask real nicely, if the sales assistant thinks you're really cute, you might even get them replaced for nothing. Believe me ... I sure as heck ain't cute ... never was ... but my Wal-Mart offered to change them for me for free twice. I guess I looked like a big spender, or something. Just kidding.
