nose pad
Spectacle bridge support
Nose pads are the small cushioned pieces on eyeglasses that rest against either side of the nose.
They keep frames from sliding down and distribute weight to prevent discomfort.
Adjustable nose pads can be bent to customize fit; some frames have fixed pads molded into the frame itself.
