Thanks for the insight. I do not have a short term problem with Blutac, and I do replace it regularly, after a few rides. What you are suggesting would work well for a permanent solution I suspect, as you are using the fix with glasses you use for cycling, but for me I need to raise my prescription glasses higher, so I do not want a permanent solution.

Re: Improving the nose rests on my glasses.

I have had the same problem and resolved it well using blutack. A thin strip high on the bridge of my nose. The glasses sit on this. The slight tackiness means that the material sticks to my nose and to the glasses. Has lasted for long distances. Play with the design to get the best fit with minimum visual appearance. I also use Vistana over sunglasses which have wrap around lenses which look good and are better for all round visibility. Overall very very little inconvenience and works well.
