Medical Forum / General / Vision / September 2007Frames with magnets
I was offered eyeglasses frame with an add-on sunglasses, attachable with magnets. There are magnets (pretty srong !) on both eyeglasses and sunglasses frames. I am wondering, is it Ok to have such strong magnets so close to the brain, pretty much all the time ? How old is this magnet add-on technology ? > I was offered eyeglasses frame with an add-on sunglasses, attachable > with magnets.

How old is > this magnet add-on technology ? Been around at least ten years. I am not aware of any evidence that magnets near the head cause problems.

But that was presumably a very strong field. Don W. Dear Don, And then Babbage said, "...boy, that does not COMPUTE". Maybe I can design a "differential engine" that will. And the rest, as they say, is history. Otis > > > I was offered eyeglasses frame with an add-on sunglasses, attachable > > > with magnets.

Brains operate on chemical and electrical basis. Magnets are neither chemical nor electrical and produce no energy unless moved over a wire. Unless you have wires in your brain and regularly wave your glasses over your head, I wouldn't worry. We've had magnets for over 200 years now, and so far nobody has ever had any brain problems caused by them. -Elron >> I was offered eyeglasses frame with an add-on sunglasses, attachable >> with magnets.

I read something about the possibility of birds being able to navigate over water over long distances by somehow sensing the earth's magnetic field. You will, of course, do what you think best -- but I just relined my tinfoil hat.

Firm proof here that there is a such thing as stupid questions. |
