Question: Can the quality of glasses (crizil lens) detiorate over a period of time?
Can the glasses cause eye lid inflammation and swelling?

When I remove my lens and look through it at a white paper I see little yellow tinge.
I have not tried this before. Is this expected?

Regards,

Brief Answer:
Glasses will not cause eye inflammation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

Iam Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

Cryzal lenses will not detiorate but the vision through them becomes less clear with increase in duration or as the lenses become older with use. This is because of deposition of dust, scratches... But generally they are more durable compared to other lenses.

The glasses will not cause eye inflammation.

The presence of yellow tinge on viewing through the glasses will not occur normally , probably the lenses need to be changed.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
