  Try to wash her eyes with saline water and put an ice bag on them. Don't rub them. It is better to see an doctor as soon as possible.

• Can I fix broke nose pad in an eyeglass frame?

  Yes, you can fix it by yourself with a repair kit which usually contains mini screwdrivers, screws, nose pads, small magnifying glass and a wipe cloth. You can buy it in an optical store. I have repaired many of my own glasses in this way.

• Why do I feel dizzy when wearing sunglasses?

  It is quite an odd problem. You can try to wear polarized sunglasses to see if you still feel dizzy. I have seen people also feel dizzy when wearing regular sunglasses but feel good with polarized sunglasses.

• Can I have lasik surgery with strong prescription?

  Laser surgery can't improve your vision to a satisfactory level if you have strong prescription. You can talk to your doctor and figure out other way to improve your vision.

  If your frame is mental, it can be caused by oxidation. Most mental frames contain bronze, the air and sweats make it oxidize and finally turn green. You should keep your glasses dry especially when you sweat a lot.

• Can all people wear aspherical lens glasses?

  Aspherical lens glasses are not suitable for all people. People who have worn glass glasses for a long time may find difficult to get used to aspherical lens. People with squinting eyes can't wear Aspherical lens glasses.

• Can I add a nose pad to my eyeglasses?

  Unfortunately you can't. I guess your glasses must be plastic frames without nose pad. There is no way to add nose pad as they are made together with the frame. You need to change for mental frame with a nose pad.

• Why does my child blink frequently after wearing glasses?

  I think it has nothing to do with wearing glasses. Blinking frequently may be a sign of conjunctivitis. People with squinting eyes can also have such problem. It is better to take him to see the doctor and find out the problem.
