Operating Instructions

Once your prescription lenses are fitted, the Timex T 188 eyeglasses are ready for daily use. The spring hinges are designed to provide a comfortable and secure fit, adapting to various face shapes. To wear, gently open the temples and place the eyeglasses on your face, ensuring they sit comfortably on your nose bridge and ears. The spring hinges will help maintain the frame's shape and prevent them from becoming loose over time.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: Clean your eyeglasses regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and a specialized eyeglass cleaning solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals, paper towels, or clothing, as these can scratch the lenses or damage the frame.
• Storage: When not in use, always store your eyeglasses in the provided generic hard case or pouch to protect them from scratches, dust, and accidental damage.
• Handling: Always handle your eyeglasses by the frame, not the lenses. Avoid placing them face down on surfaces.
• Temperature: Do not expose your eyeglasses to extreme temperatures, such as leaving them in a hot car, as this can warp the frame material.
• Adjustments: If your eyeglasses require adjustment, it is recommended to visit a professional optician to avoid damaging the frame or hinges.

Troubleshooting

• Loose Fit: If the eyeglasses feel loose, the spring hinges are designed to maintain fit. However, if they become excessively loose or uncomfortable, visit an optician for professional adjustment.
• Scratched Lenses: Demo lenses are prone to scratches. Once prescription lenses are installed, follow proper cleaning procedures to prevent scratches. Scratched prescription lenses typically require replacement.
• Frame Damage: In case of significant frame damage (e.g., cracks, breaks), professional repair or replacement may be necessary. Avoid attempting to repair plastic frames yourself.
