Positive. I have both. The plastic ones are often T-fal, and they are oven safe.
I have that exact pan (http://www.amazon.com/T-fal-Professional-Thermo-Spot-Indicator-Dishwasher/dp/B000GWK2XW/) and I highly recommend it. I use my carbon steel skillet for most of my non stick purposes, sometimes eggs too but my non stick heats up quicker and so I use if I'm making eggs for breakfast before work. It's crazy cheap but I've had it for 3 years now and the non stick quality hasn't degraded. I'm honestly quite surprised how much I like this pan given how cheap it is.
Just remember, don't heat Teflon pans dry and don't use very high heat. Past a certain temperature, you will damage and remove the Teflon layer, which is bad for your health. Also, I'd recommend always washing by hand, even if it says dishwasher safe.
I purchased this Cooks Standard set 4 years ago for $225 and I've been loving it. No need to worry about using metal or scrubbing hard. I do occasionally use Bar Keepers Friend to polish up the pans for a brand-new look.
If you don't want this brand/set specifically, for sure get at least tri-ply like already mentioned. I think metal pans (vs non-stick coating) are better for all around cooking. Sure, you need to use more oil/butter in your cooking, but moderate amounts of fat are important in a diet. Its highly processed, added sugars, and excess salt you need to worry about.
For when I needed a non-stick, like for eggs, I picked up this T-fal and the non-stick is fantastic, even after a few years of careful use.
I also have a Lodge cast iron dutch oven set which is great for when I use it, but I find it difficult to use effectively. Perhaps I'm just not using the proper techniques, so I don't get much use of it... but I do love to use it when I get around to it. Learning proper care for cast iron is essential - read up before you use (and possibly ruin!)
Get this T-Fal. I know you aren't in the US but we have a magazine and cooking show called America's Test Kitchen and they found this to be the best for cooking eggs. It has great non-stick properties that lasted longer than any other pan they tested. I use mine every morning.
the T-fal are fairly popular and cheap..
I think the secret is to have the oil the right temperature and to have the right pan. Having the right size pan means your eggs won't spread out too much, that prevents the whites from overcooking before the yolk sets. A good non-stick pan will allow you the confidence to flip the eggs which leads to a better looking egg. I highly recommend these from t-fal. If you tend to make 2 eggs at once this pan is just the right size. T-fal Professional Total Nonstick Oven Safe Thermo-Spot Heat Indicator Fry Pan/Saute Pan
If you only like to make one egg at a time this pan is the perfect size.

The 8 inch pan has an indicator in the center that lets you know when your pan is at the correct temperature. Having the pan hot enough prevents food from sticking. They are non-stick but I always use ghee, coconut oil or bacon fat to cook my eggs for additional flavor. So, bring the pan up to temperature, add the fat, pour the eggs in and let it cook until the edges are brown. Flip, turn off the heat, let cook for 1 more minute.
