Best Frame Materials for Kids
TR90 (Memory Plastic)
The top recommendation for children aged 3–12. TR90 is a thermoplastic that flexes under pressure and returns to its original shape — critical for kids who sit on, twist, and drop their glasses daily. It's ultra-lightweight (12–18g), hypoallergenic, and virtually unbreakable under normal use. Most kids glasses at Chashmaywaly use TR90.
Silicone Rubber
For toddlers and children under 5, silicone rubber frames with an elastic strap are the safest option. The soft material won't dig into the nose or ears, and the strap ensures the glasses stay on during crawling, running, and nap time.
Acetate
For older children (10+) who want trendy, colourful frames. Acetate allows for bold patterns and colours that appeal to tweens and teens. Less flexible than TR90 but more fashionable. Add spring hinges for extra durability.
Lens Options for Kids
- Polycarbonate lenses: The default for children. 10x more impact-resistant than standard plastic. Essential for active kids and sports.
- Blue-cut coating: Filters blue light from tablets, phones, and school computers. Recommended for children who use screens more than 2 hours daily.
- Anti-scratch coating: Extends lens life against inevitable kid handling. Usually included on polycarbonate lenses.
- Photochromic lenses: Darken outdoors for built-in sun protection. Good for kids who lose separate sunglasses.
How to Get Your Child to Wear Glasses
- Let them choose the colour/design. A child who picks their own frame is more likely to wear it proudly.
- Start with short sessions — 1 hour, then 2, then full days. Don't force all-day wear immediately.
- Use positive reinforcement. Point out characters, celebrities, or older kids who wear glasses.
- Ensure proper fit. Glasses that slide, pinch, or sit crooked will be rejected quickly. An optician adjustment solves most complaints.
- Have a backup pair. At PKR 1,200–2,000 per frame, keeping a spare pair saves emergency trips when the primary pair breaks.
When Does Your Child Need Glasses?
Watch for these signs — and schedule an eye exam if you notice any:
- Sitting very close to the TV or holding books close to the face
- Frequent eye rubbing or blinking
- Squinting or tilting the head to see
- Complaints of headaches or eye pain after school
- Difficulty reading the whiteboard from the back of the class
- Avoiding reading or homework
Children should have their first comprehensive eye exam at age 3–4, and annually once they start school. Pakistan's National Eye Health Programme recommends school screenings, but a full exam by a qualified optometrist is more thorough.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest kids glasses price in Pakistan?
Kids glasses start from PKR 1,200 for a TR90 flexible frame without lenses. A complete pair with prescription polycarbonate lenses starts from approximately PKR 2,200.
How often should I replace my child's glasses?
Children's prescriptions change frequently — plan for new lenses every 6–12 months. Frames can last 1–2 years if they're durable TR90 or silicone. Budget for at least one new pair per year.
Are polycarbonate lenses necessary for kids?
Strongly recommended. Polycarbonate is 10x more impact-resistant than standard CR-39 plastic. For active children, it's a safety essential — particularly for sports. Most paediatric optometrists consider polycarbonate the default lens material for anyone under 18.
Can kids wear contact lenses instead of glasses?
Generally, contact lenses are recommended from age 12+ when children can handle insertion, removal, and cleaning responsibly. For younger children, glasses remain the safest and most practical option. Consult your eye care professional for specific guidance.
