I one found this damage on my headphones on both sides, it is unclear what caused it, and the continued uses causes the damage to expand. I’m siriously concerned as I’m sensitive to such issues. The headphones are less than a year old.

wearing glasses?
Yes, but they are very rounded at that part, so I’m unsure how it could’ve damaged it.
Theyre made of cheap “pleather” material that flakes apart with time. I have some expensive headphones that have done the same. You can just buy replacement ear pads and slip them on like a fitted bed sheet.
The fake leather is polyurethane, which goes through hydrolysis. Basically humidity destroys the bonds.
and sweat is amazingly corrosive
Just the pressure of the frame is enough to cause this. It’s a stress point for the material
These kind of pads are not really made to least long. Normally you can replace them
Round things still are subject to friction.
That’s like saying “Water is soft and conforming, I’m unsure how it could carve a canyon.”
I wear glasses, using the same headphones since 5 years and they never caused any damage. All the recommendations saying “just get new ones” are pure consumerism and what got us into this state of filling up our oceans with rubbish. Buy quality headphones not cheap crap and you won’t have this issue.
Buy new ear pads is consumerism, but buy another pair of headphones is good?
Ah yes, the famous “repair worn out pieces”, that consumerism is known for
Buying cheap crap only to replace it with another piece of cheap crap soon is consumerism, yes
