Troubleshooting
Frames feel too tight or loose
Consult an optician for professional adjustment. Minor adjustments can sometimes be made carefully, but professional fitting ensures optimal comfort and fit.
Acetate frame appears warped
If exposed to heat, allow the frames to cool down naturally at room temperature. If warping persists, visit an optician for assessment.
Scratches on the frame or lenses
Minor frame scuffs can sometimes be buffed out by an optician. Lens scratches are generally permanent and may require replacement of the lenses.
