When your favorite eyeglasses break, finding quality repair services can be challenging. Many optical shops only handle simple adjustments, while others send frames away for weeks of uncertain repairs. In the Rogue Valley, Goldsmiths Diamonds & Design offers comprehensive eyeglass repair services that restore your frames to like-new condition, often stronger than their original state.

Our master craftsmen have been providing professional eyeglass repair services for over 22 years, treating each frame with the same precision and care we apply to fine jewelry. Whether your glasses feature expensive designer frames, vintage styles that are no longer manufactured, or everyday frames with sentimental value, our repair expertise ensures you can continue wearing the glasses you love.

Eyeglass frames endure daily stress from constant handling, temperature changes, and accidental drops. The most frequent issues we encounter include broken nose pads that dig uncomfortably into the skin, damaged hinges that cause arms to wobble or fall off entirely, and cracked or snapped frame bridges that leave glasses unwearable.

Temple arms present their own unique challenges, often breaking at stress points where the arm meets the frame or at the curved section that wraps around the ear. Metal fatigue, especially in older frames, can cause these areas to become brittle and prone to sudden failure. Plastic frames face different issues, including stress fractures from overtightening and UV damage that makes the material more prone to cracking.

What sets our eyeglass repair services apart is our combination of traditional jeweler's skills with specialized optical techniques. We use precision soldering for metal frame repairs, ensuring joins that are often stronger than the original manufacturing. For plastic frames, we employ specialized adhesives and reinforcement techniques that create durable, nearly invisible repairs.

Our workshop includes specialized tools designed specifically for optical work, including lens protection systems that prevent damage during frame repairs. We can rebuild broken hinges, replace nose pads with properly fitted alternatives, and even recreate discontinued parts using traditional metalworking techniques. For vintage or designer frames where replacement parts are unavailable, we can fabricate custom components that match the original specifications.

Professional eyeglass repair offers significant advantages over replacement, especially for quality frames or prescription lenses. High-end designer frames can cost hundreds of dollars to replace, while professional repair typically costs a fraction of that amount. For prescription lenses, repair allows you to keep your current lenses with their perfect fit and any special coatings or treatments.

Environmental considerations also favor repair over replacement. Quality eyeglass frames are designed to last for years with proper care, and professional repair extends their useful life significantly. This approach reduces waste while preserving frames that fit comfortably and suit your personal style.

Vintage eyeglass frames present unique repair challenges that require specialized knowledge and techniques. Older materials and manufacturing methods differ significantly from modern frames, requiring careful assessment and appropriate repair approaches. Our experience with period jewelry gives us insight into the materials and techniques used in vintage optical manufacturing.

For specialty frames including safety glasses, sports eyewear, and unique designer pieces, we evaluate each repair based on the frame's intended use and structural requirements. Safety considerations are paramount, and we ensure all repairs maintain the frame's protective qualities and structural integrity.

Our eyeglass repairs are completed on-site, allowing us to maintain quality control throughout the process. You can see the care and attention we put into each repair, and we explain our process so you understand exactly what work is being performed. Most repairs are completed within a few days, getting you back to clear, comfortable vision quickly.
