Broken eyeglasses repair?

trharlan, if there is a Lenscrafters in your area, check them out. Most often, there is someone who works there that would know how to fix this, often for free or a minimal price.

I third the jeweler. I recently broke a pair of eyeglasses at the bridge, and a jeweler did a great job bonding the pieces back together–you’d never know they were damaged.

I fourth the jeweler. Or, if you’re “handy” like me, find out the proper type of solder to use for eyeglass frames (high strength, I know that) and solder them yourself. Remove lenses first and flux is a must, I’d say. Use a soldering iron. Steady now…… I’ve fixed my eyeglasses’ frame about a dozen times with the wrong kind of solder. It holds for a while and then lets go at inappropriate times, such as minutes before my wife and I hop in a car to visit her mother. The frame comes apart, and the plastic lens falls to the floor and ricochets under the refrigerator. Then, my wife glowers at me and begins to lecture about how I need new glasses.
