Pad-angling is used to adjust what?

Explanation:
Pad-angling is about changing how the nosepads tilt so they sit properly on the nose. By adjusting the angle of the pads, you control how high or low the frame sits and how the weight is distributed on the nasal area. This helps with comfort, keeps the frame from slipping, and positions the lenses so they align well with your eyes. It’s not used to adjust temple length, lens curvature, or bridge width, which are handled by other adjustments or frame specifications.
