To remove a lens from semi-rimless glasses, apply gentle pressure to pop the lens out from the frame, starting on the side attached to the frame.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
-
Locate the Attachment Point: Identify the section where the lens is connected to the frame. This is usually along the top edge in semi-rimless designs.
-
Apply Gentle Pressure: From the back of the frame, carefully push the lens forward with your thumbs while using your fingers for support on the frame edge. Focus the pressure near the attachment point.
-
"Pop" the Lens Out: The lens should gently pop out of the frame. Avoid excessive force, as this could damage the lens or the frame. It is best to start from one side, gently dislodging the lens gradually.
Important Considerations:
- Patience is key: Take your time and avoid rushing the process.
- Avoid Sharp Objects: Never use sharp tools to pry the lens out, as this could scratch the lens or damage the frame.
- Professional Help: If you are uncomfortable removing the lens yourself, consider taking your glasses to an optician for assistance. They have specialized tools and experience to handle this task safely.
- Frame Material: Be aware of your frame material. Some frames are more brittle than others and require extra caution.
