Product Information

Whether you select glasses with conventional (standard) hinges, spring/flex hinges, or no hinges at all, over time, the twisting, stretching, bending, and everyday wear and tear on your glasses can cause the hinges to weaken and loosen. The frames you select will depend on your daily activities, style preferences, and budget. Specific designers and brands offer proprietary hinge technology for the active wearer, while others design glasses with standard hinges that are easy to repair. Consult this guide to learn more about the types of eyeglass hinges, and which is right for you.

A number of eyeglass manufacturers have developed proprietary technology for spring/flex hinges that bend in all directions to provide optimal durability and a more secure fit.

Another is Aspex Eyewear’s signature EasyTwist TurboFlex hinges that flex and bend 360 degrees to withstand impacts and fit comfortably. Sferoflex takes its name from the brand's patented hinge technology that allows the temples to flex around the wearer’s face and prolong the life of the frames. Hingeless Eyeglasses

Whether they're fitted to sunglasses or spectacles, side shields have a fairly basic function. They close the gap between the edges of the frame front and your face. Once located, the screws can be tightened to adjust the opening and closing mechanism of your temples. This can be a personal preference as to how tight or loose you want this to be. Rimless frame fronts are joined together via a metal bridge. Via screws, the bridge joins and secures the lenses together to make the frame front. At the edges of the lenses, the temples are also attached via screws through the outer-sides of each lens.Cross head screws are slightly less common and use a cross shaped (Phillips) slot in the top of the screw head.
