Flexible Glasses

• What are flexible glasses frames?

  Flexible glasses are built from bend-resistant materials—like memory metals (e.g., Flexon), TR-90, or Ultem—so they comfortably flex under pressure and bounce back to shape.

• Are flexible frames durable?

  Yes, definitely! Frames with spring or memory-metal hinges hold up incredibly well against bending and accidental drops. Even hingeless titanium models are super slim and sturdy. Just remember to pay close attention to the lens material, like Trivex, to help avoid any cracking.

• Who benefits most from flexible glasses?

  They're fantastic for adults who wear glasses every day, especially if you've got an active routine. Of course, they're great for kids too! Basically, anyone prone to bending or dropping their frames will love them. Plus, they're ideal if you're just tired of tight glasses—that flexibility really stops pinching over your ears.

• Why choose flexible or spring-hinge frames?

  Well, these frames really resist damage from all that everyday wear and tear. That's super handy if you're active or just tend to drop your glasses a lot. Spring hinges, specifically, add extra give at the temples, making your glasses even more durable and comfy, especially when you're adjusting them with just one hand.

• What materials are used in flexible frames?

  You'll commonly find materials like memory metals (things like Flexon or titanium), TR-90, Ultem plastics, and even lightweight aluminum-magnesium alloys. These materials are chosen because they're durable, usually hypoallergenic, and built for a whole lot of movement.

• Are flexible frames good for all ages?

  Absolutely! They're just perfect for everyone: kids, teens, active adults, and seniors. Everyone benefits from that extra durability and the forgiving, comfortable fit that a flexible construction totally provides.

• Will flexible glasses fit well and stay comfortable?

  Yes, they really will! Even though they flex easily, flexible glasses absolutely hold their shape. Many models come with adjustable nose pads and spring hinges, making sure you get a secure, custom fit no matter your face shape.
