Einleitung
Use this guide to repair semi-rimless glasses with a broken or loose retaining thread or lenses that have come out of the spectacles. This is a quick, simple repair. It can be done at home easily with tools like tweezers, fishing thread (as per the glass hole size), nail cutters, and scissors.

Inspect frame to make certain the Monofilament Lens Retainer is broken. If the wire is not broken, your lens has fallen out and can easily be re-inserted. If the wire is broken refer to the following steps.
-

-
Remove the old wire/string from the spectacles using the tweezers as shown in the pictures to the right.

-
-
Hold the glasses in the position shown in the image. There will be a hole near the nose pad, shown by the arrow in the second photo, you will use this to insert the new wire.
-
-
-
Insert one end of the wire into the hole near the pad arm and insert the other end to the opposite side of the glasses, then tie the knot as shown in the images.
-
-
-
You will see a thin groove along the edge of the glasses. Carefully fix the wire around the groove as shown in the pictures.
-
-
-
After placing the wire around the glasses, stretch the wire, tie it, and make a knot by holding the glasses tightly.
-
-
-
In the end, check if your glasses are tight enough to wear. If the glasses are tight, they are ready to wear.

I dont agree with above method, it will end in a very visible knot on both side of glass. The professional way is to pass the wire from one hole and again back in from another hole place the glass and stretch the wire on both sides, it will make it hold the glass tightly, no need for a knot. Just look at any half frame carefully and you will understand.
I was not aware frames came like this, right lens wire snapped, I see how to repair, but my hands are not steady, would a eye glass store help?
An important thing to note is on the glasses I repaired, the thickness of the wire was significant for both strength and retention. I used the Stren line as suggested in the image, but found it to be less than half of the diameter which it should have been. Highly recommend 0.5mm/0.022in line. Measure the diameter of the original wire if you can before purchasing replacement wire. I used a set of dial calipers to measure mine.
