Question 1

How about plastic eyeglass frames?

Accepted Answer

Plastic eyeglass frames are a great choice for style and comfort. They come in a variety of colors and styles to make a personalized fashion statement. They are lightweight and can be worn for long periods of time without discomfort. Durability is another advantage of plastic frames; they are flexible and cope well with daily wear and tear. In addition, plastic frames are hypoallergenic, making them an excellent choice for wearers with sensitive skin.

Question 2

What are the disadvantages of plastic frame eyeglasses?

Accepted Answer

While plastic frames are versatile and stylish, they do have some drawbacks. They scratch easily if not cared for properly, and exposure to sunlight and skin oils can cause them to weaken or discolor over time. Unlike metal eyeglasses frames, they usually don't have an adjustable nosepiece, so it's important to make sure the fit is right at the time of purchase, as they can't be fine-tuned later. Additionally, in extreme temperatures, they can become more brittle compared to metal frames.

Question 3

Are eyeglasses better with or without nose rests?

Accepted Answer

Choosing glasses with or without nose rests depends on personal preference and comfort. As with many plastic frames, frames without a nosepiece have a smooth look and are very comfortable due to the weight being evenly distributed across the nose. On the other hand, eyeglasses with nose rests are adjustable and can be customized to fit your unique nose shape, providing a custom fit. Some people find that the added grip of the nosepiece helps to hold their glasses in place better. Ultimately, the best choice depends on what feels most comfortable on your face and fits your lifestyle.

Question 4

Are plastic frames cheaper than metal frames?

Accepted Answer

Typically, plastic frames are more economical than metal frames. The materials and manufacturing process of plastic frames often result in cost savings that are passed on to the consumer. However, at Vooglam, you'll find that price depends more on design and branding than just materials. We offer a selection of plastic and metal frames at a variety of price points to suit every budget, without compromising on style or quality.

Question 5

How do I clean my plastic eyeglass frames?

Accepted Answer

Maintaining your plastic frames is simple and key to keeping them looking great and lasting for years to come. You can gently clean the frames with mild soap and warm water. Avoid hot water that will warp the plastic and harsh chemicals that can damage the frame. Dry them with a soft, lint-free cloth. For everyday dust and smudges, a microfiber cloth works best. In addition, storing your glasses in a protective case when not in use will keep them clean and prevent potential scratches or damage.
