Spectacle bridge supports
Nose pads are the small cushioned pieces on eyeglasses that rest against the sides of the nose, distributing the weight of the frames and preventing slipping.
They attach to adjustable metal arms, allowing the fit to be customized: The optician bent the nose pads to sit more comfortably.
