    Confused Lenses cut to small?

    I had some new lenses put in my eyeglass frames that seemed good for awhile, Now the lenses are starting to pop out!, I took my frames to an optical store and they told me the lenses were cut to small for the frames?, They said the only thing i could do was put new lenses in them again, The original warranty on the lenses have expired, Since the lenses are still in great shape and they are very close to fitting in these frames I was curious if their was a gasket or something i could use to make the lenses more snug?, I really don't want to ruin the lenses or frame with super glue!, Any advise would be appreciated?

    The warrantee on lenses fabricated with shoddy quality NEVER expires. See you eyecare professional, and please follow posting guidelines in the future.

    Take them right back where you got them. This should never have passed inspection and it doesn't matter how long you have had them. They need to be remade and with no questions asked. If they try to "fix" them by inserting a nylon liner do not accept it. It really isn't difficult to cut a lens correctly.
