Are your glasses supposed to lay flat when opened or is there usually a leg in the air?

They are supposed to lay flat.

They are crooked otherwise.

Especially if they dont fit on your face properly. Some ppl do need them like that, but if they dont fit you then take them back in

But they can fix them easily

Flat Glasses

When you first try on the glasses they should lay flat. That way you know the frame is straight. Now it is not uncommon for one temple to sit a little higher off the table AFTER they have been adjusted to fit you. Some people have one ear higher than the other and the only way to make the glasses sit straight is to lift one temple up. Now since your glasses are sitting crooked on your face, you temples probably should be even on the table. I would take the glasses back and have someone else adjust them to fit you properly.

My ears are crooked and one of my legs is up in the air. That is totally not important. What is important is that they are straight on your face and if they are not, you go back to the store and you have them adjust them until YOU think they are straight. It doesn't matter what the people tell you. It is your face and you have to look at them everyday. Get them adjusted, it should be free. I argue with my glasses people all the time but I leave happy =)

No they should lay flat, unless your ears a slightly crooked, but the doctor would've had to make the adjustments. Sounds like he was too lazy to take care of them. I'd go back and complain!

It depends on your face and ears. If your face or ears are crooked, the frames may be too.

If the glasses are crooked on your face, then they are not adjusted properly. Take them back. After adjustment, look in the mirror at the shop. If still crooked, have them adjust again.

they are suppose to lay flat that dude is on something i think he just wanted to get you out of there. You need to get them adjusted. Sometimes the frame you pick can not handle the lenses. Like me I have to have plastic glasses because one of my lenses are thicker than the other. So that my be the cause of the leg being up.

Patients prefer that their glasses lie flat on the table regardless of the position of their ears.

The first thing to check is the straightness of the front. Then adjust the temples.

hi

i got a new pair of glasses little over an hour ago so i know that i cant have bent them and yes they lie flat!

i would take them back for adjustment/a new pair if they cant adjust and dont go there again! but whatever you do dont try to bend them yourself it usually only makes matters worse --> trust me i've tried this and ended up having to get a new pair of glasses and if they ar eplastic they can snap in two!!!

They lay flat (as they possibly can).

He, as a "professional" should have you try them on, and then make adjustments as needed. Try and get someone different to help you.

They should NOT sit on your face crooked.

I don't know about you but I am not perfectly symetrical. I have 1 ear that is higher than the other. My glasses do not lay flat. It's not by much but if they look straight on ur face than I wouldn't worry.
