Chew some more gum. Once it's softened up and sticky just hold it in finger an thumb, and start bolting it against what is stuck on the glasses. Worked on my kids glasses...*

Try putting the glasses in the freezer for about an hour. Then, very carefully, so as to NOT crack the lenses, gently snap/peel off the gum. Now that it's frozen, it should come off more easily.
And, no more snapping and blowing bubbles with your glasses on! :-)

Put the glasses in the freezer for about a half hour. When you take them out again the gum should come right off. Don't worry if you forget about them and don't take them out till tomorrow. It will still work.

lighter fluid works wonders for chewing gum. get a cue tip (one among them cotton bud issues that folk have a tendency to apply for their ears) soak the tip with lighter fuid and rub it over the gum. this ought to take it off. basically ensure to bathe over that section afterwards to end smells and the potential of hearth if a cigerette etc is dropped there. yet in a different way is freezing it or ive additionally heard white spirit is stable yet under no circumstances tried the two of them.

It sounds weird but the absolute best way is to rub some peanut butter on it for a few minutes then wash it off. It will come off very easily.

I'd try the freezer. I do that all the time to get my candles out of my candle holders real easy. Hope this helps you out.
