"Hi! My name is David with Expert Village, and I'm going to show you how to adjust glasses. Now I'm going to discuss some of the common tools used in order to adjust your glasses. First we have the cleaning cloth. It's abrasive; 100% cotton. Next we is a small Philip’s head screwdriver, commonly found in most computer part stores, as well as a small flathead screwdriver. Next we have is your common needle nose pliers. They can be found at any hardware store, as well as Loctite, which is used to secure screws that are coming loose. The Philip’s head screwdriver can be used to remove the screws when necessary or to tighten screws that are becoming loose. The flat screwdriver can also be used to tighten or loosen screws that have become loose. The needle nose pliers are used whenever frame adjustments need to made through the temple or the bridge. The needle nose pliers can be found in any common hardware store. Just make sure that you get the pair that has a smooth surface on the inside. If you get the kind that are serrated, they will end up damaging your frames."
