Eyeglasses Chain

wear to work, then one day I heard the younger girls mentioning something about "those eyeglass chains old women wear" and became a little self conscious. I just never thought of them that way. By the way I'm sixty so maybe she was right.

I've been putting my glasses on a string/chain since I started wearing them about 20 years ago. Hon, if I didn't do that I'd have spent a fortune replacing lost glasses.

So, if that makes me old then I was old long before I knew it. Console yourself with the thought that your young co-workers will have glasses hanging around their necks in the not to distant future.

got them from www.vintageous.com and then just took them to a regular eyeglasses chain store with my prescription to have the lenses put in. (They ...

I am in San Francisco, CA but if you know of a reliable franchise, please lmk. My prescription is for single vision lenses (no adds/bifocals) with minimal cylinder. In other words, a fairly straightforward prescription.Thanks.

Hey , I (eyeglass chain) broke a screw in the frame of my eyeglasses which are too expensive to give up are any suggestion on how to remove a small screw from them . I would hate to have and give them up please help.

Usually when this happens, it's the bottom part of the screw is left in and there are only a couple possible ways to remove this partial screw. First see if there is any of the end tip extending out, and if so, use a flat tweezer to grip that little pint and turn anti-clockwise(to your left) and hopefully you can get it going to remove the entire partial screw. The other way is to use a dremel with a very thin drill bit and drill it out slowly;this is best done by an optical store, because the slightest miss could end the life of your frame. The optical store also may have a tool to punch it out, but this is not used on delicate frames.

If method 1 is successful, then you can use another screw to replace the one removed. The other two methods would require a screw with a lock-nut as a replacement.

I looked everywhere for variety of eyeglasses frames. All i ve seen was a bunch of common eyeglasses in thin narrow rectangle shaped (like reading glasses). These frames do not fit my facial shape. Is there any unique or local eyeglasses stores beside chain stores (TSO, Pearl, Eyemaster) in Houston, Texas?

This depends on your face shape. Look at this website, I am not encouraging you to buy from this website but it is a good "frame" of reference for face shapes. http://www.framesdirect.com/face-shape.a sp#square

http://www.santafeoptical.com/ is a website that shows a nice looking boutique in austin, texas.
