Prison frames

[Randle Tibbs, ABOM]

Does anyone know of a good frame that can be used for Youth offenders incarcerated that does not contain metal core in the temple?
they have a tendency to re-purpose them into weapons.

When I worked for the prison system it could only be BC glasses, big bulky black, so we could see any alterations done to them. Trust me when I say, metal or not, they can re-purpose anything, even all plastic toothbrushes! Plastic bottles, oh the stories I have!

[Uncle Fester]

Limited collections obviously.


I'd send them to this site and capture the family with your honesty in helping them through difficult times.

Yes, now that I think about it, what about TR90 frames? Do they have wire cores?

They do.

I think New York Eye has some. They call them "Correctional Eyewear." https://newyorkeye.net/correctional-eyewear/

There isn't much of a range of styles and I don't know if the requirements for what is acceptable vary per facility.

Modern optical has 2 styles, labeled NTC-1 and NTC-2 which means unimaginatively No Temple Core. both come in several sizes.
