OPTOM FASLU MUHAMMED
Most necessary repairs will be minor.
As a result, replacement of broken parts is usually more cost effective.
Correctly Using an Optical Screwdriver When using an optical screwdriver, the
screwdriver should not be held like a pencil.
There are many different types of optical screwdrivers available, from ones with brass shafts and no-roll handles, large, round hardwood handles that fill the palm of the hand.
one that bends to findthe size and shape of the hand.
The screw-holding tool places the screw inhard-to-reach places where fingers cannot always go.
Flaring pliers will flare a rivet or screw tip toprevent it from backing out.
The screw-lift tool allows a loosened screw tobe removed with less chance of being dropped.
There are many different types of nose pad assemblies.
The screw-on and push-on type nose pad assemblies are the most dominant.
The push-on pad is one of the easiest pads to remove and replace.
It has a small I-beamlike shape that snaps into an indented box on the pad arm.
Although a push-on pad can be removed without the aid of tools, it is possible to use a small device called a pad popper.

The screw-on type of attachment has a small post on the back of the pad with a horizontal hole in the post.
Replacing Missing or Broken Temples If a pair of glasses has an
irreparably broken temple, it must be replaced. The first choice is to replace it with a new, identical temple.

Soldering is the only possible way to repair a broken metal portion of a frame unless the entire front or temple is replaced.
Flame Soldering Some flame soldering units use one gas,
butane. Others use two independently regulated gases, either oxygen and acetylene or oxygen and butane. The oxygen will be used up at twice the rate of either the acetylene or the butane.
