Sunglasses

Street cred or ultra violet protection?
Cool on the beach or hot on the piste?
Rock Chick or Houte Couture?

Today with increased leisure time and foreign travel sunglasses are a vital part of eyecare. Modern quality sunglass lenses give great comfort from glare and visible sunlight and also protect the eyes from the harmful ultra violet rays of the sun.

Different lenses are available for different situations and environments, for example driving, skiing or sports use. Ultra violet protection can also be incorporated into non-tinted lenses.

If you wear prescription glasses for driving it is very dangerous to substitute them for non-prescription sunglasses......but we are often shocked by how many people do. Don't take the risk, invest in some prescription sunglasses, there is a such a great choice available.

Sunglasses for children are so important as it is known that the greatest absorption of the harmful UV rays occurs at an earlier age, and as this is known to be the greatest single cause of cataracts at a later age, then the protection from UV earlier is more important than we all think. We carry good quality children's ranges from:-

  • ZOOBUG
  • STAR WARS
  • SUNWISE
