I have a similar problem and found a very nice solution. If you go to www.nosepadking.com, you can do research on nose pads that you can stick on to your plastic frames. These are not those little foam stickies you refer to in your post. I have had great luck with these: <http://stores.nosepadking.com/-strse-71/silicone-adhesive-nose-pads/ Detail.bok>. I replace them every two-three weeks and have not had any problems with slippage for daily normal use. Slippage still occurs when I'm going for a run, but that's the case with any pair of glasses, metal or plastic.
The nosepadking.com site is a bit of a mess in terms of navigation. They have a 30% off sale until the 27th as long as you use the promo code: Thanks BTW, if you are still not too crazy about ordering silicon nose pads, you can go to coastalcontacts.com and look for Gucci plastic frames. They have a few with the adjustable nose pads. I have one of these frames but still find that I am more comfortable with my regular plastic frame and the silicon nose pads from the Nose Pad King for some reason. Good luck! - Rory On Nov 24, 5:10 pm, angerme <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm a gal going through life with a low nose bridge that loves the > look of plastic frames, but they don't stay put and always slide down > my nose! > I've tried re-bending the legs to keep them tight against my face, but > what happens is that they sit so close to my face that my eyelashes > brush up against the lenses... > > I've pretty much come to the conclusion that I can only ever order > plastic frames with the clear pad (split-pin) that screws into the > metal that is attached to the frame (essentially the kind you find on > every and any metal frames)....rare, but they are out > there...somewhere... > > Has anyone heard of adding adjustable nose pads to glasses that are > completely plastic? that stayed on? > > (btw- I'm not talking about those little foam stickies that you find > in every mini fix-it kit) -- Check us out at the oft-updated http://glassyeyes.blogspot.com!
