how do i recycle old glasses?

fguihen · 2011-09-17 11:10:19

I have 3 or 4 pairs of old glasses that have a prescription i no longer use. they glasses/frames are ok, just old. Rather than throw them out, does anyone know if they can be recycled or donated to charity, and if so, where?

Drop them into the Optician you purchased your last pair from. They can use them for either emergency repairs of other customer frames or they can send them off to different charities.
