Whiteheads Caused By Eyeglasses?

I had to get glasses about a month ago, and now the area where the glasses sit on the sides of my nose is breaking out in many whiteheads. And I had just recently gotten completely clear :(. It's always something.

Anyway, how can I stop my glasses from breaking me out?

I've tried just about everything I know to do. I wash the glasses with soap and water a few times a week, I wipe down the nose piece with alcohol every day before I put them on, I take them off as soon as I get home to try to minimize contact time, and I don't wear makeup.

Any advice is appreciated!

Hmmm tricky... Have you tried wearing contacts? I know that's not helpful but that's the best solution I can think of. Or else maybe tape some sort of thin cloth to the nose parts of the glasses that press on your nose? Obviously make it discrete but I'm not really sure. You could try getting a different nose piece to the glasses at the eye doctors. I don't know if that's an option. I'm sure people have been allergic to that material before and had to get different material
