How to Choose the Glasses Frame Material That's Right for You(click link for full article)
Most people who choose eyeglass frames are concerned with price and style. But there are other factors to consider, such as how lightweight, strong, flexible and corrosion-resistant the frames are.
Today's eyeglass frames are made from many types of plastic and metal. Some frames combine materials—for example, a frame with plastic surrounding the lenses and temple pieces made from titanium. Different materials will be right for different people and situations, according to your ophthalmologist.
Knowing you have a choice, our pledge to you is quality eyewear.
