There are many types of glasses frames materials, mainly rubber glasses frames, metal frames, and natural material frames. Currently, there is no perfect frame material because there are many requirements.

Require at least anti-allergic and nonirritating skin; Lightweight, light enough, comfortable to wear; Hardness, sufficiently hard, not easily deformed; Flexibility, good toughness, not easy to break; Corrosion resistant, not corroded by sweat or grease.

Suggestion to start with glue frames: Acetate fiber is currently the main material for mirror frames, which is light and has rich and layered colors. But it contains plant fibers, which are prone to deformation after absorbing water; TR90 is lightweight, comfortable, has memory function, and can restore shape even when extremely bent, suitable for people who enjoy sports; ULTEM is lightweight, high in strength, not easily deformed, and has excellent heat and low-temperature resistance, commonly used in aerospace and medical fields.

It is not recommended to purchase plastic. Although the price is low, the quality is really poor and it is easy to break. Celluloid, although durable, is too heavy and lacks comfort.

The natural material frame has the shell of an animal called a hawksbill, similar to a sea turtle. Lightweight, unique, with bright and layered colors, but expensive in price. Some countries have listed it as a protected animal, which is already rare on the market. The ox horn is too heavy and has been completely replaced by plastic. It is not recommended to purchase it.
