Why do my glasses keep sliding down?

Why Do My Glasses Slide Down My Nose? There are many reasons why glasses slide down the bridge of someone's nose. Causes range from eyeglass frames being too wide, skin is too oily, the wearer's ears are too high or low for the frames or the bridge of their nose is too narrow.

Do glasses loosen over time?

Every face is unique, so making small changes is natural process that everyone goes through. Over time, the shape of your glasses will constantly change. They might begin to feel looser around your head, slip down your nose more often, and more.

Are my glasses too narrow?

If you can fit more than one finger between the arm and your temple, the frame is too wide. On the other hand, if the arm and your temple touch, the frame is too narrow. Improper frame width will inevitably affect the placement of your pupils within each lens.

Are glasses with nose pads better?

I wear glasses with nose pads for the exact same reason you don't. I find they're more comfortable. On top of that, nose pads can be adjusted and if glasses without nose pads slip off your nose, you either adjust the legs to press harder against your head (and cause headaches) or you let them slip.

How can I make my nose more comfortable with glasses?

You can test this by smiling and seeing if your glasses rub against the apples of your cheeks. Your eyes should look out from the center of the lens, and the temple arms should rest lightly against your face. If your eyes are more toward the nosepiece of the glasses, the glasses may be too big.
