I read mixed views whether it's safe or not.

Anybody with real experience whether an airbag can be dangerous to your eye while wearing glasses?

I've been there... the lenses didnt break and came out of the frames. Got a bad gash in the eye socket from the frame (oh and a broken nose).

Modern glasses rarely shatter because most of them are polycarbonate and not glass, so you probably wont have any issues from that side.
