Setex Gecko Grip Glasses Nose Pads (5 Black Pairs), 0.6 x 7 x 16 mm

I recently got new plastic framed glasses and they keep slipping down my nose. It was driving me nuts, as they're varifocals, so their position is important. I bought these pads with minimal searching and surprisingly they work absolutely as advertised. After cleaning they stick well and have not peeled. They grip the bridge of my nose without any discomfort. They will slip eventually, but I'm not constantly pushing my glasses back in place like before. I got black coloured ones which blend quite well with the dark grey frames. I would recommend them and would buy them again should I need replacements.

I used these on my new glasses that the optician couldn't seem to get to fit - they were slipping down my nose. I cleaned the nose area on my specs and it was easy to apply the nose pad. The grip is very good, they do work but after about 3 weeks the adhesive started coming out, almost melting. I would probably buy them again but I do think they are quite expensive

I've used glasses nose pads for years now and tried many others, these ones are by far the best! Well worth the extra money as they last much longer and are more reliable. I put them on my plastic (acrylic) glasses frames as otherwise my glasses side down my nose, as I like to keep my face moisturised with SPF. The nose pads last about a month for me before they start peeling off- but that's to be expected given the nature of the glue- not *too* sticky so it's possible to pull them off and reposition while fitting them, then they set more stubbornly on and last the whole month.

I'm glad that more than one pair come in the package, as the first pair has only lasted about 1.5 weeks. The adhesion weakened after a week, I kept having to re-position them, before giving up and putting on a new pair. I also found that even when sitting in the right place, they were starting to slip down my nose. At first, I was happy with them because it cut the amount of times I need to push the frames back up my nose by about half or more. They don't hold the glasses when running, but are good for normal moving around or when my head is down reading and such things. But, then they started to slip again. I have combination skin which I mention because I don't think my nose is any oilier than most people, so I would have expected the grips to not be affected by that, (plus I also wiped them which didn't seem to help). Overall, they are better than not having grips as the bridge of my nose is small and I need something to help keep my frames in place, but I am a bit underwhelmed with the performance so far.

I've always worn half rim glasses, but recently bought a pair a full frame sunglasses, not realising the nose piece was hard plastic. In short, they hurt to wear, hence buying these pads. Taking note of other reviews and product instructions, I cleaned the glasses with IPA and handled the pads with tweezers to keep any grease off. First pair I fit were in the wrong place so had to remove them after a few days, they were stuck well, so I'm confident the adhesive is good. Second pair were a better placement, and I can now wear my sunglasses for longer without them hurting my nose. The pads are good quality, neatly packaged and come with a little plastic case to keep them safe, which is good, because at this price, you'd be gutted if you lost them! Yes that's a negative, they are expensive for what they actually are, and for the price it would be good if they came in different thicknesses.

Does the job very well. Barely visible, definitely stops glasses sliding. They do need replacing every few weeks as the glue that holds them on to the specs eventually fails. Be carefull with glasses cleaning fluid as this seems to be able to dissolve the glue quicker.

I have tried all different pads on the market it seems for my glasses as they don't fit my face and keep falling down. Thought these more expensive... Well a lot more expensive than other brands would be better. These were put on my glasses 12th April after they arrived. Since yesterday they have been sliding off and coming off. Not even 14 days for a pair to last. Yes they don't leave a sticky mess on my glasses like others but they don't do what they say they are and if every 10-12 days I need to replace them I'm just going to buy new glasses as it will be cheaper in the long run.

I bought these to make my Ray-Ban Meta glasses more comfortable but they only last about a week before falling off.

The glue did not last for even a full month.

Por fin. Unas almohadillas cómodas, que cumplen su función y que no varían la posición del graduado de mis gafas progresivas. Son lo que buscaba.

Muy buena opción para evitar que se te resbalen los lentes; estoy muy contento; además, se disimulan bastante bien

Sono super! Gli occhiali non scivolano e lasciano molto meno il segno marcato sul naso. A me hanno risolto il problema principale : l’occhiale essendo molto pesante, mi premeva con le aste dietro l’orecchio. Questi gommini mi hanno permesso di risolvere la situazione. Prezzo un po’ elevato ma consigliati. Li cambio più o meno ogni 3-4 settimane.

Diese Pads sind ein Lebensretter. Ich habe eine neue Brille, die aufgrund meiner Nasenform nach Einbau der Gläser hoffnungslos rutscht (durch den Glaseinbau wird der Nasensteg teils etwas geweitet und mein Nasenrücken ist ohnehin schon sehr flach). Justieren der Bügel beim Optiker brachte Druck, aber keine Abhilfe. Ich habe völlig verzweifelt, aber ohne große Hoffnung diese Pads hier bestellt und ... sie lösen mein Problem! Kein Schmerz auf dem Nasenrücken, kaum Rutschen und auch keine nennenswerten Abdrücke. Man fühlt die Pads nicht. Ich habe die in extra dünn gewählt. Zu den normal dicken würde ich nur bei sehr schmaler Nase oder deutlich zu großer Brille raten (und da ist eine neue Fassung oder eine Anfrage an den Optiker vllt doch sinnvoller). Sie halten bisher schon fast 4 Wochen bei mir - trotz täglichem Reinigen mit Wasser und Spülmittel. Teils tritt etwas Kleber aus (sprich eine weiße Haut hängt am Rand des Pads), den kann man aber vorsichtig mit dem Fingernagel entfernen. Dass die Pads sich angeblich so leicht löse, wie viele hier sagen, kann ich nicht bestätigen - wie gesagt reinige ich sogar täglich unter fließendem Wasser. Vllt eine Frage, wie die Brille sitzt und wie fettig die Haut ist? Jetzt löst sich bei mir langsam die "Geckofußtechnologie" ab, sprich die Oberfläche wird langsam glatt (es rubbelt sich jedoch kein Plastik auf die Haut) - d.h. ich würde sagen, dass ca. 1 Monat oder mehr die Lebenszeit der Pads ist bei täglicher Benutzung und auch Reinigung. Die Klebeleistung hat bis dato nicht nachgelassen, wie gesagt nur die Beschichtung. Somit ist die Dose mit 5 Sets ca. ein Halbjahresbedarf, so lange man sie nur für eine Brille braucht. Einziges Manko für mich: die Pads sind flächig sehr groß und vor allem lang, passen nicht zu jedem Gestellt. Und man sieht sie schon ein wenig. Wenn man ein schwarzes Gestell hat, unbedingt die in schwarz kaufen, sie fallen zumindest weniger auf, man sieht sie nur, wenn man ganz genau guckt. Die durchsichtigen fallen vermutlich schon mehr auf, so denke ich (außer bei transparenten Gestellen). Ich würde sagen, dass die Pads nur für größere Acetatgestelle geeignet sind, z.B. Sonnenbrillen. Für kleine Brillen Typ "Kaufhauslesebrille" passen sie eher nicht, da sind die Nasenauflagen einfach zu klein, wobei man ggf. das Pad mit einer Schere kürzen könnte. Das Gestell, für das ich die Pads verwende, ist eine Ray-Ban Elliot. Dort passen sie ohne weitere Anpassung, man muss aber sehr sorgsam beim Aufkleben sein, was etwas pfriemelig ist. Wie gesagt - für Personen mit empfindlichem Nasenrücken oder schweres Gestell vs. flache Nase sind diese Pads ein Lebensretter.
