domdom Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Hello I had new glasses made last year with a very expensive frame I purchased in Europe,, Unfortunately the part connecting the frame to the 2 branches doesn t work anymore on one side.. In Europe I could only throw everything to the dustbin which has a high cost due to the frame price and the fact glasses fitting my eyes are very complicated and so, very technical and very expensive Would anybody know a place where I could try to have this fixed / Thank you very much Have a nice evening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) Maybe not as big a technical problem as yours, but the nice man at First Optical repaired a broken arm on mine. https://goo.gl/maps/9cAfyPMDSBG2 At worst he may be able to take out your special lenses and fit them to a similar frame. Cant hurt to ask him anyway. Edited December 1, 2016 by KittenKong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eefoo Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I've always used the same opticians here and when I went in one time to get some new ones I took an earlier set of frames that had separated at the bridge. Not only did he weld them back together seamlessly, it was free. Basically what I'm saying is take them into any opticians and ask. It won't be free, but they can probably be fixed at a low cost. There are some good technicians out there. My good technician is at Ho Waen (หอแว่น) inside Tesco Lotus on Sukhumwit Road, South Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 If its a Titanium or memory metal frame, I don't think you'll find anywhere that can repair them properly with a welded joint. First optic as mentioned earlier should be able to fit your old lenses into a new frame very cheaply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The technician isn't in-house (I think she said he was in Naklua) butwas done in 2-3 days and cost around 500 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
