What are Your Sunglasses made Of?

Two Eyewear On White Surface

Sunglasses for sale in the Philippines come in so many shapes, sizes and colors but the lenses can only be made from a number of materials. Even though they are called sunglasses, they are not always made of glass. Together with glass, we wil discuss the materials that sunglasses are made of.


Plastic


We start the list with the most affordable material on the list. Plastic is the most common material for manufacturing sunglasses but not just any plastic; the most prescribed is CR-39 or organic plastic. It’s more durable, eco-friendlier to produce, and lighter than regular plastic.


Polycarbonate


Polycarbonate, although a little bit pricier, also offers more for your money. It’s the go-to material for performance sunglasses. Polycarbonate is actually a fortified type of plastic. It is very strong so much that it can withstand 160kph impact making it the suitable material for sportswear but also for work gear like safety goggles.


Nylon


Newest among the plastic materials is nylon. Otherwise called polyamide, it sort of is a blend of both organic plastic and polycarbonate plastic so imagine it’s durability being somewhere in between the two; not completely shatter resistant but strong enough to not crack when drilled. It might not be easy to find sunglasses for sale in the Philippines that has lenses made of this new nylon material but it pays to know that you have you can possibly avail lenses that has the best of both materials.


Glass


Of course, last but not the least is glass; tempered glass to be specific. Glass is the more common material for fashion sunglasses like wayfarers and aviators. Compared to plastic, it has incomparable shine. It’s also the most scratch resistant material among the choices. The only downside is that it is not shatter proof making it the least viable option for active wear. If you aren’t planning on using your sunglasses for vigorous activities, going for tempered glass is definitely your style.



Of course, if you are to buy sunglasses for sale in the Philippines, make sure that you have them coated with anti-UV at the very least to keep your eyes safe (uncoated sunglasses still let UV through) as your sunwear should be. No matter what the material, you can bask in the sun safely and stylishly!
