To detach the eye cup

Holding the glasses in one hand and the eye cup in the other, detach the tab from each side of the frame, one at time.

Now gently pull the eye cup away from the frame.

To refit the eye cup

Insert each tab into the slot at back of the frame.

Push firmly so that the tab clicks securely into the slot on both sides of the frame.

Check that the eye cup is fitted snugly to the back of the frame.

View the glasses from the back and the front and check that the eye cup is fitted evenly all round the frame. If fitted correctly, the eye cup should not protrude from the top or bottom of the frame.
