Metal Eyeglasses FAQs

What's the difference between titanium and memory titanium?

Pure titanium has about 99% of the material, while titanium alloy (also called “memory titanium” or “bendable titanium”) is about 75% with the rest being made of other metals (such as nickel and copper). Both materials are lightweight, durable, and strong. But memory titanium has certain flexible properties that are great for temple arms and can give you a snug, comfortable fit.

What are the most durable metal eyeglass frames?

Both titanium and titanium alloy are used to make some of the most durable eyeglass frames. And while their strength is similar to that of stainless steel, they can give you more options in terms of patterns, textures, and colours.

Are stainless steel eyeglasses frames good?

Stainless steel frames have a great deal of strength – all while offering a lightweight design. They can also give you a great deal of flexibility and durability, but they're also hypoallergenic (which is their biggest advantage). However, stainless steel is harder to manufacture. So, they come with a higher price tag. It can also be harder to get them in the right colour, which can also add to their cost.

Are metal eyeglass frames better than plastic frames?

Many people choose metal eyeglass frames because they have subtler design, are smaller, and aren't as heavy. Some people also think they're cooler to wear (in terms of temperature) than plastic frames, but they won't be able to accommodate thicker lenses. So if you have a stronger prescription, plastic frames will most likely be your best choice.

How do I choose eyeglass frames?

You want to pick a pair of eyeglasses that matches your face shape, skin tone, and eye colour. Start by looking in the mirror and paying attention to the features of your face. You want to pick a frame that will give your face the proper balance. So if you're ready to buy your next pair of glasses, be sure to look at what we have at Glasses Canada today!
