Repair Service
We repair all glasses as quickly as possible
Metal glasses
Broken metal glasses can be repaired. The defective part is joined up again by soldering. It is also possible to grind the existing lenses into a new frame.
Plastic frames
Your plastic glasses are broken in two. Depending on the material, we can join the fractured parts together. For this type of repair we need your glasses for 24 hours. It is also possible to grind the existing lenses into a new frame.
Titanium glasses
Because of the special properties of titanium, this material can only be soldered in a protective gas atmosphere. For this type of repair we need your glasses for 2-3 days. We offer a one year warranty for this quality repair.
Drilled glasses / pinhole glasses / rimless glasses
If such glasses are defective, a part can be replaced if need be. This requires us to assess the frame in order to determine how to repair it.
Wooden Glasses
Wooden glasses can be repaired too. The defective point is joined together again with a special adhesive, machined and resealed. For this type of repair we need two days.
Horn-rimmed glasses
A good knowledge of the material is needed to professionally repair horn-rimmed glasses, This work is carried out by a horn specialist at his studio here in Zurich. Depending on the damage, the material can be joined again or repaired using new natural horn. We also recommend that you have your glasses refreshed every one to two years so that they keep their shine and flexibility.
