Fab up eyeglass nose mount

[grego]

My daughter has a pair of glasses that need some help. They are the plastic type frames that don't have nose pieces to adjust like metal frames do. The nose portion is too wide and so her glasses sit on her cheaks instead of her nose. I have used some black closed cell foam and it works good except that they hold moisture, ie., sweat and tend to fall off after a few days or a week. I also had some of those clear bumpers for the drawers so they don't slam but the rounded shape digs into here nose. I am thinking of glueing the replacement nose pads for metal frames on there but want to pick your brains for anything that might work.
Thanks

Pick your material...I like the silicon used in the most comfortable pads used on glasses.
Find a way to shape it to fit he nose shape and the glasses. It can just be one shaped pad of material that is glued or screwed into the plastic frame or even a soft tube of material wrapped around the frame.
Figure out a way to fasten on the glasses.
Also think about the way the glasses hook over the ears as this keeps them close to the face so they don't slide down. Also how well they clamp on the sides of the head help promote this. But too much pressure makes them uncomfortable. They can be heated and slightly re-bent. In other words, get them properly fitted.

I used sugru to repair the nosepiece of my glasses well over a year ago. The repair is still going strong!
