How to change the nose pads of your Ray-Bans

How to change the nose pads or arm pads of your Ray-Bans?

Have you ever noticed those plastic or silicone pads that our glasses have? And, have you noticed the color these pads take on over time? It’s a bit unpleasant, so sooner or later you will need to change them. In today’s blog we will tell you how to change the nose pads of your Ray-Bans.

We’ll show you step by step:

  1. To change the nose pads of your Ray-Bans you will need a precision screwdriver or a very small screwdriver, a chamois or a cloth and, if possible, a pair of pliers.
  2. First cover the lens on the side of the nose pad to be replaced. This prevents accidental damage to the lens.
  3. Once our lens is covered, use the precision screwdriver to pry open the tabs that hold the Ray-Ban nose pad. Once they are slightly open,  pop the nose pad off.
  4. In order to install the new nose pad, place it onto its mount, press it into place and use the pliers to squeeze each tab closed.
  5. Once it is properly attached, your nose pad has been changed.

It’s quite simple, but there is always something that may vary or have a rather unusual mechanism. As you already know, should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be very happy to help.
