To all spectacle wearing Escapists everywhere!
At several points in our day, we have our glasses come down somewhere on our face, so naturally, we adjust them back up. But we all have different ways of doing this.
So my question goes, How do you adjust your glasses?

Me, I use my index and middle fingers to push them back up my face from the bottom of the lens.

Depending on the situation, I either crinkle my nose to push them back up, or use the middle joint of my index finger.

Apparently I grab the legs, lift, adjust, and push back down.

Used to use the Bridge, but it seems I made a habit out of using the legs so I won't get the glass parts wet.

Index finger to push up the bridge. Or side of my middle finger. I seem to be consistent about only using the bridge.

I got drunk at the weekend and went home without my glasses. Or my shoes. Not sure how that happened, but you have to admit it's a novel way to adjust your glasses...

When I wore glasses, I held onto the parts that keep them on your head and adjusted them.

I usually poke them right in the lens and then have to take them off and wipe the fingerprint.

I have not been wearing glasses long.

I use my thumb and middle finger to clasp the frame next to the hinges. It?s a bit weird, especially when I'm wearing contacts and I position my hand accordingly out of reflex.

I do that - we're super cool!
(although I've recently been introduced to the freedom (and occasional mild eye-pain) of contact lenses)

Various ways, but I never, ever touch the lenses. Smudges are so very annoying.

I could never get contacts. My eyes are sensitive enough already.

EDIT: did I really just use "ultra" in two consecutive posts? Yeesh.
