GMS Optical1.3mm Extra-Thin / 18mm Large-Length - Anti-Slip Adhesive Contoured Silicone Eyeglass Nose Pads with Super Sticky Backing - (5 Pair - 2 Pack) (10 Total Pairs) (Clear)

The media could not be loaded. To save money, when I needed new prescription glasses this year, I used my old frames that I love so that I'd only have to pay for new lenses. The only problem was that these frames always slide down my nose from my oily skin. It drove me crazy. I would literally be pushing my glasses up every few minutes. The friction gave me those dark lines on the sides of my nose which I also hated.To get the right size, just get a little tape measure like the one you use for sewing. Measure the length of the nose piece on your glasses. That's all there is to it.Once I got them, I cleaned off my glasses nose piece with one of those eyeglass wipes with the alcohol and let dry. Then I put these on and it's been smooth sailing ever since. Mind you, the dark spots on the sides of my nose haven't disappeared and that's just the cost of wearing glasses, I guess. But the friction caused by daily slipping and sliding has subsided.I got these exactly 30 days ago and waited a month before writing this review. I wanted to see how long-lasting they were. It's been a full month and they are still in place. I wipe them frequently with eyeglass wipes to keep oil from my face off them and they haven't budged. I appreciate that there are spares but even if I had to replace these every couple of months, I'd be happy. It's a minor investment for major improvement in comfortable eyeglass wear.===UPDATE: my original review was posted August 24, 2024. I just want to let you know that I am still wearing the first set that I put on my glasses and today is October 11. I wear makeup, and I do have oily skin, but these things really stay put. I just clean it when I clean my glasses with those wet wipes. I just make sure to wipe off the nose pads. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for comfort and convenience.===‼️ Another update April 28, 2025. I just uploaded a video review and am emailing that video to GMS, too, to let them know how impressed I am. After 9 months, I STILL have one pair left from the 5-pack. I am a woman with oily-ish skin, I wear makeup, I have hot flashes...the whole nine. If you keep them clean they will last.For instance, whenever I clean my glasses with the wet wipes, I make sure to wipe the nose pads, too. It's like anything else; you need to maintain it to get the best life out of the product.I don't need to place another order just yet, but when I do, I'll get the same brand again. I am truly impressed. So impressed that I didn't even bother using a filter or getting pretty for this video. It is what it is 😆 but you got the message! Follow me for good reviews and REAL reviews.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I purchased 1.5mm Frog pads, GMS Optical 1.8mm thick x 13mm short (clear), and GMS Optical 1.3mm x 18mm long (clear). I've now tried all three on my clear plastic eyeglass frames.I was worried i) whether the pads lifted my frames enough to keep my eyelashes from rubbing my lenses, ii) the pads would stick well, and iii) the pads were visibly noticeable to others. All three raised my frames enough. Only the GMS Optical 1.3mm were not noticeable. While the Frog pads, adhered the best and staid stuck the longest, the edges of the adhesive developed into globs and collected dirt making the nose pads even more noticeable. It was like adhesive was oozing out by the end their life. Then, removing them was by far the hardest as the adhesive was the hardest to remove. It took a fair bit of hard scrubbing with alcohol.I don't think the texture referred to as "Microstructured Fibers" on the Frog pads made any difference. I thought it would, but it didn't.The GMS Optical staid stuck for about three - four weeks whereas the Frog pads staid stuck for about four to six weeks. Other than that, both versions of the GMS were more comfortable. I recommend getting the 18mm long ones unless you're putting these on children's frames.You need less thickness than you think; the 1.3mm thickness was perfect for raising the frames and not being noticeable. When the GMS Optical adhesive fails, they fall right off. Done. When the Frog pads adhesive fails, they start to rotate first giving you a bit more notice that they are due for replacement.My preference is the GMS Optical 1.3 x 18mm over the other two.

These work perfectly!! My glasses stay in place until I decide to take them off.

I wish I could give this product 5 stars. They are very comfortable. I only had the pads on my glasses for less than 2 weeks and they came off. It’s summer, I sweat, and the oils from my face. I tried to keep the nose area clean. Maybe when the weather cools off they may work better.

These are my go to I have ordered these multiple times and shared with friends that have glass that slip. You do not notice them as they are clear. They are very comfortable. My glasses were fitted to my face so the thickness of the nose pads are perfect in aiding my glasses to stay in place. If your glasses are too big for your face, they will not correct that. They are easy to attach to your glasses. If you wipe your nose guides on your glasses with alcohol and affix one time (without pulling off to reposition) with clean/dry hands, they will last much longer than promised. I have had them last up to three months.

My glasses nose pieces are very uncomfortable.These are very soft and keep stuck on very well, very effective.They are the perfect size and the quality is excellent.

These are great! They have lasted for a very long time so far. I don't wear my glasses everyday, so the longevity hasn't been thoroughly tested with me, but I'm impressed! They also don't get stinky, like ones I've used in the past have done. My nose is literally the first thing on me that sweats when I get hot, so these get covered in sweat & face oil. No smell & they're still stuck on strong.
