Question

Which is more healthy? eyeglasses made of glass? or eyeglasses made of plastic?

Answer 1

I don't think there's really a health difference, but plastic will be more durable!

Answer 2

Well, plastic or polycorbonate lenses are definately a lot safer than a glass lens in front of your eye in case of an accident.

Within a short time I wouldn't be surprised if glass is no longer available....it is just a very small part of the market now.

Answer 3

neither is healthier but the glass lenses can and will break.I made eyeglasses for twenty five years and i wouldn't even think of wearing glass lenses...

Answer 4

healthy? Glass is more prone to scratching, and shattering which can damage the eye.
