You can do without soldering devices if you use dichloroethane or benzene, which melts the plastic to the desired state at normal temperatures.
Regardless of the selected heating method, the parts of the frame softened to the required state are tightly pressed against one another and kept for some time, sufficient to obtain a reliable diffusion connection.
The restoration of parts by a laser method is carried out using a special microscope, which affects the cost of all repair operations.
This method can be soldered both in a vacuum and in the open air; Moreover, the use of fluxes in this case is not at all necessary. When soldering glasses, it is preferable to use an impulsive mode of operation of the laser device, using solders corresponding to the steel grade of the temples or rim.

Professionals carry out the soldering of titanium, composite and steel frames, they know how to choose the right solder. Soldering with a low-power laser can lead to the fact that parts of the glasses fall apart after a while, so the choice of the power of the device plays an important role.
In order to protect glasses from breakage, you need to adhere to the following recommendations:
it is best to wear them with a special safety cord, which prevents falling and damage to the product;
before removing clothes, do not forget to take off glasses in order to avoid their breakage;
it is better to store them in a specially designed case.
Note also that when not in use, it is advisable to fold the earhooks without leaving the glasses in a dangerous and unstable position.
Glasses frame repair - no problem!
The weakest point of any glasses was, is, and probably always will be the frame. Even the most reliable metal frames fail. In the event of a minor breakdown, a person, as a rule, immediately turns to specialists for help, which, of course, is correct. However, if the damage turns out to be serious and it seems to the owner of the glasses that they can no longer be restored, the idea of buying new ones arises. But this is already a serious mistake!
We assure you that there is no such breakage of glasses that our first-class craftsmen could not fix using laser welding (the best method for restoring metal frames and any jewelry), as well as modern adhesives and pinning (when it comes to plastic). Therefore, it does not matter where your frame broke, what it is made of (gold, titanium, combined alloys, polymers, on a fishing line, etc.), the main thing is that you understand: repairing glasses will cost you much less than buying new ones.
Moreover, we will restore your frames in a matter of minutes. Usually such work is performed in the presence of the customer. As for very serious injuries, they are repaired within one or two days. After the repair, you will not notice any joining seams or any other defects on the frame - your glasses will be like new again!
Need urgent glasses repair?
Under urgent repair, many understand some small operations, for example, if screws or nuts are lost, worn out or do not suit the nose pads, you need to replace broken hinges, hinges, and so on. We do all this quickly and without any problems.
However, our experienced specialists will eliminate even more complex breakdowns for you urgently and at the highest level. We emphasize once again: any repairs will be cheaper for you than buying new glasses, not to mention the fact that:
- it takes time to search and select a new product;
- it is necessary to get used to the new glasses, even if they are almost identical to the old ones;
- an old friend (and glasses become real friends for their owners), as they say, better than two new ones.
Glasses repair using laser welding
Since we use laser welding in our work, our customers are often interested in: what is it, or rather, what kind of frame repair operations are performed using this method? Using a laser, you can:
- weld on the loops, say, of the nose or behind the ear of the frame;
- weld the metal frame in any place of its damage, for example, in the behind-the-ear part or in the region of the bridge of the nose;
- weld nose rest holders, temple springs and much more;
- finally, insert and firmly secure the dropped out Swarovski crystals.
In addition, you can contact our craftsmen if your chain is broken (made of any metal and any alloy), a bracelet or denture is broken, jewelry, bijouterie (of any complexity) and so on are out of order. The repair price in this case does not depend on the value of the product or brand, but only on the metal that the specialist will have to work with.
For pensioners, members of large and low-income families, as well as for the repair of children's glasses, we provide discounts according to the "Muscovite Social Card" (their size is determined on the spot). After repairs, our customers receive a one-year warranty, while the weld seam itself is unlimited.
Also, the guarantee is not provided for the repair of old plastic frames, since the plastic over time loses its elasticity (glassy), which can lead to cracks and breakdowns even in places where repairs have not been made.
Don't you believe that after the renovation your frame or jewelry will be as good as new again? Come, we will show you this "ordinary miracle", which is now and then performed in our workshops!
If one or both nose pads accidentally fall off on the frame of your glasses, it doesn't matter, you can easily stick them with your own hands, without wearing them to the workshop.
To do this, you will need spring clips (mini-clamp), the other day I just bought a set of such clips at a sale for 39 rubles, and glue, I used Moment crystal, but you can also use super glue, for example.
The procedure for gluing the nose pad to the frame of the glasses is quite simple:
- Degrease the surface.
After the glue has dried, simply remove the spring clip and use the glasses as usual.
Information
However, in order to achieve a secure attachment, an effective adhesive mixture must be selected.
Gluing plastic glasses on your own is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance.
All the tools that are needed for repair work are likely to be easily found in the house:
Mini drill with a thin drill (0.3-0.5 mm.);
Needle;
Thread;
Degreasing agents (alcohol or nail polish remover);
Stationery rubber bands;
Textile;
Cotton swabs;
Ruler;
Glue.
Not every glue is suitable for repairing broken plastic glasses.
To do this, you need to look after one of several types of glue:
Often, glasses break in half in the place where the nose bridge is located. When all the inventory is ready and you buy the necessary glue, proceed to glue the frame.
Here is an example of repairing spectacle frames using Bison Plastic glue:
Sand and sand the broken surfaces to be glued;
Degrease the surfaces to be glued with nail polish remover or alcohol;
Cut a piece of a wooden ruler so that its length is the same as the distance between the side parts of the glasses - this will fix the glasses in one position, which will increase the quality and convenience of repair;
Cover the lenses with paper to avoid scratching them;
Attach a wooden ruler to one half of the glasses, attach them to each other with a rubber band. Do the same with the second half of the glasses, while pressing it tightly against the first half;
Ensure a snug fit of the two broken-off parts of the frame;
Slowly squeeze the adhesive into the seam at the fracture;
Fill the joint completely so that there are no gaps and voids;
Use a cotton swab to wipe off the remaining glue before it dries;
Leave the glasses in this position for 2 hours until the glue is completely dry;
On the nose, on both sides of the joint, make one hole with a drill;
Pull the thread around the seam through the drilled holes. To do this, use a needle. The color of the thread should be matched to the color of the frame;
Pass the thread through both holes until they are tightly filled;
Cover the holes with a lot of glue to soak the thread;
Remove the remnants of the glue mixture with a cotton swab, and cut off the excess thread;
Set your glasses aside for 24 hours to allow the glue to dry completely.

Often, problems arise due to breakage of the temple (temples).
If they broke in half, there is an effective way glue the shackle of glasses tightly :
In the middle of the ends of both broken off parts of the bow, drill one longitudinal hole;
In each broken off part of the bow, near the ends, make two through holes so that they create a square around the joint, and the longitudinal hole is in the center of this square;
Use a chisel to cut small grooves between the pairs of upper and lower through holes, into which you will later need to lay the wire;
Pour epoxy or acetone-containing glue into both longitudinal holes drilled in the ends of the shackle;
Insert a steel wire rod into one of the longitudinal holes so that it protrudes slightly outward;
Apply a thin layer of glue to both split ends of the temples;
Connect both broken pieces by placing one half of the bow on the rod protruding from the other half;
The joint must be tight, do not allow voids;
Wipe off excess glue with a cotton swab;
Wrap the seam with nichrome wire, pulling it through the through holes;
Pull the split parts with it to increase the adhesion strength;
Hide the protruding wire in the previously cut grooves;
Twist the ends of the wire, making a turn;
Cut off the rest of the wire with wire cutters;
Let the glasses dry for another day, after which you can continue wearing them.
It should be noted that the glue will only help with minor breakdowns. In some cases, you need to resort to more sophisticated repair methods or buy new glasses.
I do not know what to do. Such a transverse bar broke off between the frames of the glasses above the bridge of the nose. I soldered it with ordinary solder with acid - it does not hold for more than a month. It leaves again - there are loads there when putting on and taking off. The new frame does bite, especially nowadays. And in the workshop they twisted so much that all the surrounding toads stood on their horns. How to solder it, infection, to keep it?
Do you and I agree chtol?
Papa Carlo : I do not know what to do. Such a transverse bar broke off between the frames of the glasses above the bridge of the nose.
Papa Carlo : Such a transverse bar broke off between the frames of the glasses above the bridge of the nose. AN1440 : pick up a tube (like a thick needle from a syringe) Yuha : Go to Optics.
Alexey : ... but most of the time had more than money.
And in general, it's time to drop glasses and restore vision according to Zhdanov.
An acquaintance, at the next prophylactic examination in the polyclinic, asked the ophthalmologist whether it was true or not. He said that it was true and that according to this method, they say, "80-year-old grandmothers drop their glasses."
Then, a week later, he calls me and happily informs me that he switched to his old glasses at +1.5, since he began to see badly in the previously prescribed (and long-used) glasses at +2. And at 1.5 - just right. He says he did eye exercises for just a week.
It will not stick on one solder. It is necessary to reinforce the structure with a piece of paper clip.
Papa Carlo : How to solder it, infection, to keep it? Reinforce brazing .. Change design ..
Papa Carlo : And in the workshop they twisted so much that all the surrounding toads stood on their horns.
Lucky you, in your workshop they can at least make such a repair.I traveled to jewelers with a similar problem and the workshops there said right away - this is not being repaired.
AN1440 : on the new glasses, this “bridge” could be bent 180 ° - after which it straightened itself. But. metal fatigue apparently has not yet been canceled.
I would say the bunglers have not yet “shot” all. This is nothing more, no less, but an ordinary fake for cool branded titanium alloys, I know from personal experience, tk. I had a titanium frame, I sat on it twice and once stepped on it, at least henna frame, but the plastic lenses had to be changed, we bought the second “fake” titanium glasses for our boss, in the store too they bent these glasses to show their strength, after three months these glasses burst just on the bridge of the nose, they cannot be repaired, I had to give my boss my “cool” titanium frame, which has served faithfully for the fifth year already. By the way, whoever has a hand full, then branded glasses made of titanium are lighter than those glasses that are positioned by unscrupulous firms as a titanium alloy.
Num lock : It will not stick on one solder. It is necessary to reinforce the structure with a piece of paper clip.
If we also take into account that it is difficult to solder titanium without a special flux, oh, how difficult it is, then it is better to put a “clip” on the inside and take a stainless string and screw this clip to the bridge of the glasses, then it will turn out quite nicely and reliably, the tin also gets dirty and do not forget that in solder has lead that will poison the body.

First of all - to an ophthalmologist at a regular clinic at the place of residence. Visited a week ago. Of course, I had to sit in line for an hour. But it was worth it! When the doctor (a young blonde) took me by the ears and brought my face close to her face, “my heart stopped. " (With)
