Eyeglasses Plastic

I just bought a pair of vintage plastic eyeglasses online, the shape is perfect (ive been searching for this shape everywhere) but i hate the color. What is the most durable and least toxic (since it will be sitting on my face for extended periods of time) paint to use? I have been thinking about using the spray paint for plastics but I'm not sure if thats the best choice.

I know you want to but I really wouldn't put paint, especially spray on your glasses. They'll be near your eyes and will most likely be bad for them however non toxic the paint is. I'm sure the colours not that bad. :)

Men's eyeglasses that have plastic frames are a hot item, and many designer name brands are creating a variety of styles in plastic frames ...

I have perfect vision but I need a pair of plastic eyeglasses for a scene. They need to look good and they need to be cheap.

hot topic or spencer gifts, but if you want a nice pair go to a eyeglass shop and buy frames and tell them you want clear lenes put in theyll do it.

Price: $4.50 $2.95

Drinking Glasses Literally. These clear, plastic-tubing faux-specs start in your soda, wrap around your ears and eyes, sit on your nose and end up in your mouth.
You slurp and your drink zips around your face and into your yap. The last word in sophisticated beverage consumption. Made of 1/8" and 1/4" tubing, the slurp-parts detach for when you're not drinking.
Some folks here believe we got this, despite the fact that it's in perfect working order, because the package says "It's suck-sational!"

I am looking to get a pair of eyeglasses with just regular clear plastic lenses, that do not have any type of prescription to them... I just need a pair of glasses to wear inside because I have dry eyes and wearing glasses helps with that problem.. All the glasses I can find online look like safety glasses and not regular glasses... Do eyeglass places, like the ones in walmart, have eyeglasses without prescriptions in them... How much would I be looking at spending on these? Thanks

You can get them online for much cheaper than buying them from Lenscrafters and other stores like that... My mom got some Gucci ones from CoastalContacts.com. They have designer ones as well as some less expensive ones if you just want a cheap pair.

My older plastic eyeglass frames have developed some white blotches where the plastic is drying out. I tried mineral oil on someone's suggestion, which didn't work. The frames are otherwise great, and I'd like to know how to moisturize them and keep them looking nice.
The frames are mostly dark, with some clear plastic portions. Here are the frames: http://www.coolframes.com/?fid=1617

This is the placticizer coming to the surface and it just keeps happening. The only thing that has ever worked for me is to take an old piece of flannel and stretch it really tight over your finget and buff the frame out with a little dab of real acetone. You have to be careful as you can also ruin them if you get too much or do not buff fast enough.

I want to buy a new prescription eyeglasses, but i can't decide which lens to buy.. Everyone said that Rodenstock is the best but it's way over my budget..

So which is better, Hoya or Essilor?

Oh yeah, scratch resistant is the most important point for me..

Thx everyone!

In my professional opinion, Essilor lenses are the best. They are the people who brought the Varilux and revolutionized progressive lenses. I fit most of my patients with Essilor lenses; the make the Varilux Comfort, the Natural, and the Ellipse, which are all fantasic lenses in my experience. All of their lenses are available in plastic, hi-index plastic, polycarb, and glass. They are also available in Transitions.

Essilor also has fabulous lens coatings. Their Crizal, and Crizal Alize are in my opinion, the best anti-reflactive lens treatments available. They are head and shoulders above any other coating that I have worked with as far as durability is concerned. They also have the TD2, which is a tough, durable, and 2-sided lens protection for scratching that carries an awesome warranty.

You do pay a little more for some Essilor products, but to me, its worth it to get a good lens that will satisfy my needs and my lifestyle.
