Good quality and helpful
I have tried other nose pads before that basically didn't do anything and would just slide down immediately. These are much better. They grip really well and my glasses stay in place. They feel comfortable and I haven't had any skin irritation or anything like that. They are easy to apply and I'm still using the first set as they have shown no sign of coming off yet. They were a little more expensive than the others I've tried but I'm OK with that since they work so well. I will definitely get more in the future.

Works great to narrow the nosebridge
These pads worked great to narrow the nosebridge of my glasses which was the reason I was always having to push them back up my nose. They ensured the glasses rested in a better place and stayed there as I talked and made expressions throughout the day. They also readjusted the pressure on my nosebridge up and further back, significantly decreasing my annoyance in how the glasses touched my face. I decided to keep track of how long they lasted since reviews were varied. I knew they wouldn't be permanent going in since they sent 5 pairs and they were just stick on, but I was hoping they would last a bit. This testing came during a hot and humid summer, though I spent most of it in 78° aircon. I got 59 and a half days out of my first pair. On day 42 the adhesive began breaking down and squeezing out more than just the little bit around the edge there had been previously. On day 54 one pad lifted from bottom edge, though I just smushed it down and kept wearing them. Day 60 the other pad lifted, there was much more squeeze out that morning, and by halfway through the day the nosepad starting wholely moving around. I replaced them at that point, easily cleaning off all remaining residue with rubbing alcohol. For me the cost has been worth it because I didn't much enjoy wearing this pair of glasses before the nosepads and now they are my primary pair. Picture 1: with and without the nosepads Picture 2: day 60 of nosepads, brand new nosepads

Non slip glasses or shades!
They do work! I have had a pair slide off, so I recommend shipping the area with alcohol before sticking it to them. My others are still ha.ginv on and not slipping!

They work well but don't last long
I've been using these for a bit over a month and since they last 2 weeks at most, I feel I can accurately describe the life cycle now that I'm on my 3rd installation. First, my glasses situation. I recently switched to big black framed glasses after years of wearing small rectangular wire frames with rubber nose pads. On top of that change, I had lots of adjustment issues and the college kid at my ophthalmologist's office messed with the frames so much that the arms have zero clamp on my head. Thus, they skate down my nose the second my head moves. My search for relief lead me to these Setex pads in black. Here's the installation process I've been following: Wipe the frame's nose area with a bit of isopropyl alcohol and let it dry. Then grab a pad with tweezers and ever so carefully place it where you think it should be. Hopefully you get it in the right spot so you don't have to peel it off again. Then do your best to place the other one in roughly the same place on the other side. With some patience, the pads won't be at odd angles or different heights. Now the glasses stick to your face, just as promised. It feels a little weird, like they're suctioned to your face at first, but no more slipping and it's great. A note before I continue with the review: the move to these larger frames gave me a whole world of eye pain that my ophthalmologist blamed on the thickness of the lenses, the size increase, and that my eyes were just used to my old glasses. I went back 4 times for adjustments and finally found a guy who realized they'd measured my head wrong and the center was in the wrong spot. The lenses were replaced but it barely helped; they insisted this was normal and I just had to wear them and get used to the change. Eventually my old glasses broke and I had no option but to wear these so I powered through a couple days of bad headaches and finally they felt normal. At least, until these pads ever so slightly raised the location of the glasses on my face, and brought the headaches back. That's not the pad's fault, but it's something I didn't really think about when purchasing. It was only a short period of discomfort and my eyes once again adjusted and things were fine. Again, not the pad's fault but on the chance this problem really is normal, it's something you might want to keep in mind. Back to these pads, after about a week, you notice they're slipping a bit. Not bad, but if you tilt your head down, they start sliding ever so slightly. A quick wipe of the pad with your finger reveals they've been acting like oil sponges and are feeling a bit slick. Not smooth plastic slick, but slick enough to slide a bit. I should note I don't have an oily face, I'd say my skin is normal and thanks to winter and the pandemic, I haven't left my house or exerted myself so I can't blame sweat or abnormally oily conditions. A few wipes with a finger or maybe a shirt and you'll be back to mostly normal, for now. Jump forward another week and one day your glasses will feel weird on your face and you'll see the adhesive has given up and now the pads are sliding around. Congratulations, you've reached the 2 week maximum life of the pads and now you have to start over with a new set. I'm disappointed in the 2 week life span. I'm on my 3rd set today after a month of use and there's 3 sets left in the container so you get a maximum of 2.5 months out of a purchase. I worry that summer time and some outdoor movement will cut this lifetime in half and at that point, they won't be worth the money. I'll probably go back to the metal frames with rubber pads later this year since this isn't worth the hassle. In conclusion, I'm happy with them now, not sure how I'll feel in warmer months but the 2 week annoyance is better than daily sliding glasses. TLDR: Put them on carefully, in 1 week they'll get slick with oil, in 2 weeks the adhesive gives up and you get to start over. Still better than slippery glasses.

They Really Do Keep My Glasses From Sliding!
These nose pads work great! I was tired of constantly pushing my glasses back up, especially when it was hot or I was sweating. These little pads make a noticeable difference and keep my glasses securely in place. They're clear, comfortable, and easy to apply. I also like that you get five pairs, so there are plenty of replacements when you need them. Simple product, but it does exactly what it's supposed to do. Very happy with them!

Just double up! Works great!
Great quality for the price! I bought this for my Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses. With just one pair, the 1.0mm thickness wasn't enough to stop them from slipping down my nose. So I stacked two pairs on top of each other for extra thickness, and cut off the upper half so they still fit perfectly in the charging case. After this small modification, it works perfectly - no more slipping. Highly recommend, just be prepared to double them up for Meta Ray-Bans.

Worth buying again
So far I recommend! I went for a long walk in the heat and they stayed on my glasses. And they slipped a bit on my face but nothing like other brands

Comfortable and works great on lighter glasses
These nose pads are very comfortable and easy to use. I have them on two pairs of glasses, and they work perfectly on my everyday pair. They help keep the glasses from sliding down, and I can definitely tell a difference when wearing them. The only reason I’m not giving a full 5 stars is because they did not work as well on my Meta glasses. They are heavier than my regular glasses, so the nose pads helped some, but they did not completely keep them up the way they do with my everyday pair. Overall, I think these are a good product, especially for regular lightweight glasses. They are soft, comfortable, and do what they are supposed to do. Just keep in mind that if your glasses are heavier, they may not hold them in place as well.

Solução perfeita.
Funcionam perfeitamente. Os óculos escorregavam pelo nariz e posicionavam incorretamente as lentes progressivas. Agora isso nunca mais aconteceu e vejo perfeitamente. Colocar isto exige perícia manual.
