Glasses with standard hinges may fall off during running, jogging, and other rigorous activities. Temples attached with conventional hinges tend to be more rigid. If you lead an especially active lifestyle, this type of hinge is better suited to the office than to the gym. Standard hinges might not be the most comfortable if you have a wider face that needs the temples on your frames to extend out wider. Acetate hinges can be more easily refixed or replaced if they’re held on with rivets. At Banton Frameworks, we offer a hinge repair service for our acetate glasses. There’s nothing worse when your glasses break. You’re left with perfectly fine lenses, but no way of looking through them.

Eyeglasses frames' hinges are used to connect the temples to the front of the eyeglasses frames, while allowing the temple to fold flat against the frame. Most frames use external hinges, which are mounted on the inside of the temple shaft. Internal hinges are buried inside the shaft of the temple, hiding the mechanism from view.below hinges are mostly used on aluminium frames,they are designed of installing by clamping in the recess and fix by screws,that's great when you have the soldering problem but still need the flex action on your frame. If your frames aren’t fitting correctly, it might be easier to adjust your glasses at home than you think. You can fix most common frame problems yourself, but sometimes taking your glasses to an optician is the best course of action. Spring hinges hold their initial balance and don’t require multiple adjustments. While a pair of eyeglasses with a spring hinge may need a bit of adjusting when you first receive them, once they’ve been fitted to your face, they won’t need adjusting again.

OBE hinges are a type of hinge used in eyeglass frames, particularly acetate frames. OBE stands for "Oldenburg Barrel End" and refers to a specific hinge design commonly found in high-quality acetate eyeglass frames. The hinges are the only moving part of glasses and are needed to help open and close the temples of glasses (a.k.a the arms on your glasses). HELPFUL TIP: If your glasses still pinch your nose after adjustments, ask a professional optician for help. Problem #3: Your glasses slide down your nose Need new glasses and not sure where to get started? Maybe you can feast your eyes on some fancy frames.An external spring hinge can be replaced without having to replace the temple, but to do that, a professional will need to detach the original and solder a new one in place. Frames without hinges are engineered for an active lifestyle. In a career or hobby where your glasses need to flex with your movements, hingeless frames are a perfect option. With their innovative, flexible temples, hingeless glasses are designed to grip the head and move with you. Hingeless Cons: Spring hinges are better suited to the active wearer. Since spring hinges allow the temples to hug the head for a secure fit, these glasses will stay in place during running, jumping, or jogging. This makes them a better choice for the active adult, and for children. Spring hinges also allow the arms of your glasses to adjust easily, so they won't pinch and squeeze the sides of your head during long-term wear. They're also more likely to hold their initial fit, so you won't have to tighten or readjust the hinges as your glasses stretch over years of use. Spring Flex Hinge Cons: Spring hinges, also known as flex hinges, contain a small spring that lets the arms of glasses extend further than other types of hinges do. With traditional barrel hinges, the movement is usually limited to 90°. With spring hinges, however, you can move the arms out a lot further.
