How to fix the screws

• In order to reattach eyeglass screws yourself and without the help of an optician (or, if necessary, also to loosen), you usually need a very small screwdriver.
• In fact, other household items, such as paper clips or hair clips, are also suitable here. However, you should note that you will not get the corresponding screws completely tight with these means and thus remain a residual risk.
• The more often you turn a screw in or out, the more you damage the screw socket. However, sooner or later problems can arise. However, you will delay this if you use the right tool, in this case the appropriate screwdriver, from the start.
• Use the screwdriver to find the screws that you want to work on and tighten them. However, you should not take the glasses off while doing this Fractions to be avoided by the pressure used, but to be kept in hand.
• You can then wear the glasses as usual. A little caution when taking on and taking off will also help you not to unnecessarily strain the screws.
• As an alternative solution, if you do not want to adjust the screws at all, there is a variant in which you can use thin-bodied nail polish (preferably colorless, to stains or to avoid a strange appearance of the glasses) carefully pour over the screw. However, once it has dried out, the screw will no longer move at all.
