How to Tell If Lenses Are Plastic or Glasses?
If you want to know if your glasses are made of glasses or plastic, the safest way is to ask the optician from whom you bought the glasses. If you do not want to ask the optician, there are several ways to differentiate them, such as sound, weight, and temperature.
Lightly tap the lens against your teeth or your ring. If the lens emits a high, ringing tone, it is a glasses. On the contrary, the plastic will have a low thud like sound when tapped.
Glass lenses are much heavier than plastic glasses and glass lenses feel colder to touch while plastic glasses feel warmer since it is a better insulator.
After learning what lenses you have, it is time to show how to remove coating from glasses.

Blue light in electronic products
In addition to the blue light that exists in natural light, LED energy-saving lamps, fluorescent lamps, computer monitors, mobile phones, and other digital products will emit blue light because of the use of light-emitting diode LED technology. Some people think that blue light hurts the eyes because blue light is not absorbed by the cornea and lens like ultraviolet light. The blue light can pass through the refractive medium of the eye to reach the retina, and then be absorbed by the pigment epithelium of the retina, which will cause aging and functional degradation of the retina over time.
The eyes also have many protection mechanisms, such as squinting, pupil contraction, lutein contained in the macula of the retina, and the retina's own antioxidant repair mechanism, which protect our eyes from blue light damage. And after scientific testing, it is found that the blue light emitted by electronic products is only several hundredths of the intensity of blue light in natural light. This means that as long as the electronic products are not used continuously every day (for example, more than 8-10 hours a day), the blue light will not cause obvious damage to the eyes.
Production technology of progressive lenses
In addition to the evolution in design, the production technology of progressive lenses is also constantly improving: the most representative one is the free-form technology. The emergence of free-form surface technology makes the production more flexible and rapid and can realize a more personalized design. For now, progressive lens design is done on the inside surface of the lens by a computer-controlled lathe, as if a master engraver could carve a piece of stone into a work of art.
When do you need sunglasses?
The eye skin is more fragile than other parts. Long-time exposure to ultraviolet light will not only stimulate the eye to make it aging but may damage tissues like the cornea, leading to a series of eye diseases.? For more effective eye protection, sunglasses are a better choice.? Dazzling sunshine will make the eyes uncomfortable, affecting the clarity of the objects. Wearing sunglasses will greatly increase comfort.? When the sun is strong, when you go out, take the appropriate way to protect your eyes from the sun.? For example, wearing sunglasses can absorb ultraviolet and infrared rays, reducing sun damage to the eyes.?If you are driving in the direction of the sun, wearing sunglasses can not only protect your eyes from UV radiation but help the driver better observe the situation ahead, which is conducive to safe driving.
What should drivers notice when wearing polarized glasses?
Many drivers like to wear polarized lenses. Indeed, the polarized lens can reduce strong light, eliminate glare, so that the line of sight is natural and soft, but the polarized lens is more suitable for fishing, skiing, and other large areas of the reflective environment. Drivers sometimes have to face the tunnel and another dark scene, the polarized lens is easy to make people suddenly feel dark at the moment. In addition, polarized lenses can make LCD screens and LED traffic lights dim. Therefore, when choosing polarizers, it is best to choose good quality optics, and when going through the tunnel, it is best to take off your glasses ahead of time and blink a lot. Before wearing the driver polarizing lens, try it on and observe whether the polarizing film of the lens is smooth. If the polarizing film is uneven, there will be inflow in the imaging, which may lead to visual fatigue and migraine.
