Eyeglass frames
Metal frame
Metal frames are a popular material for eyeglass frames due to their durability and light weight. They come in several grades, such as Nickel, Alloy, Stainless Steel, and Titanium. The type of metal affects the weight, durability, and price of the frames. The advantage of metal frames is that they usually come with nose pads, which can be adjusted to fit the wearer’s nose. They are suitable for cutting many types of lenses.
Plastic frame
Plastic frames are outstanding in their variety of colors, comfortable to wear, and suitable for those who do not like the nose pads of metal frames. The frames tend to be slightly heavier than metal frames, depending on the material.
Acetate plastic is a popular frame material because of its high quality, durability, variety of colors, and ability to accommodate those with high vision.
