If your pair of Gaoye Blue Light Eyeglasses has a broken or cleaved temple arm, use this guide to discover a technique to help repair and reassemble the temple arm.

The temple arm on a pair of Gaoye Blue Light Eyeglasses is a part of the frame that supports the glass's lenses. When the temple arm is cleaved unintentionally by destructive actions of users, pets, or children, users cannot place the Gaoye glasses over their ears, and the glasses will not serve their function.
