How adjust arms on metal frames

One of the opticians at Glasses Direct explains how to adjust the arms on a pair of glasses.

It's no mystery.

Opticians in store use these exact methods, with a smaller version of a hair dryer which blows hot air onto the arms.

Steps involved:
1) Put them on, and mark on your glasses where you'd like the bend to start
2) Take them off and heat up the side where you wish to make the bend for about 20-30 seconds
3) Bend the glasses straight
4) Reheat the arms again for another 20 or so seconds
5) Bend the arm around your thumb to make it smooth
6) Try them on again and see if they feel better, if not, try again until you're happy.
