Are you one of those who often push up their glasses? This seemingly innocent habit could actually be your glasses crying for help.

The distance between the lens and the eye is called the vertex distance. When myopia worsens, reducing this distance can increase the effective corrective power of the lens. If a child frequently adjusts their glasses, it may mean the current prescription is insufficient. Parents should take their children to a professional for an eye exam at least every six months and adjust the prescription in time.

Frequent adjustment might also be due to the glasses slipping down. Check two things: the fit of the frame to the face and the frame's condition. Many people buy frames online, where it's hard to ensure a proper fit. An ill - fitting or deformed frame can cause the glasses to slide. When choosing frames, it's crucial to try them on and make adjustments. Also, handle your glasses correctly and have them checked regularly.

After a while, the silicone nose pads can become hard and yellow due to sweat. Replace them when this happens. Regular cleaning can slow down the discoloration process.

Optometrists strive for accurate prescriptions, pupil distances, and optical centers to ensure clear and comfortable vision. Frequent slipping of glasses can lead to poor visual alignment, reduce the effectiveness of lenses, and even cause eye strain and worsen myopia. So, pay attention and address the issue promptly!
