Selecting the Right Sunglasses
In addition to providing the best brands at the best prices, Sansbury professionals will show you which sunglasses provide the best eye protection and performance features for your hobbies and lifestyle.
Protecting Your Eyes
When not protected by proper eyewear, eyes can become damaged by UV radiation from the sun. These dangerous rays contribute to short-term vision impairment, as well as to potentially serious age-related eye problems and diseases. Damage from UV exposure is cumulative, building every time your eyes are exposed to the sun.
For proper eye protection and to reduce excessive exposure to UV radiation, all eyewear (including non-prescription sunglasses) should come with UV protection. Fortunately, there are many stylish, functional ways to incorporate UV protection into your eyewear, safeguarding your vision while still looking great!
Polarization
Light reflecting off of water or a flat surface can cause unwanted glare, leading to eye fatigue. This can become a huge problem for people who enjoy boating, fishing, or other water-based activities. What’s the solution? Polarized lenses reduce reflected sun glare from many surfaces, particularly water, allowing you to perform your favorite activities without the burden of tired, achy eyes.
Sport Specialty Lenses
Sports eyeglasses are specially designed to fit securely and comfortably during physical activity. They are made of tough, durable materials and will not slip or fall off, even during strenuous exercise. Sports glasses protect your eyes while also giving you crystal clear, accurate vision, allowing you to take your game to the next level, whatever your sport of choice.
Prescription
Prescription sunglass lenses can block up to 99.9% of the sun’s harmful UVA and UVB rays. At the same time, they also correct vision impairments like standard glasses or contact lenses. If you have a refractive error, prescription sunglasses are an excellent choice. You’ll be able to enjoy outdoor fun while knowing that your eyes are protected from the sun—and while maintaining good, clear vision!
