Do any sunglasses protect eyes from sun damage?

Sunglasses are more than just a fashion statement—they also play a crucial role in protecting our eyes from sun damage. The sun emits harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, the natural lens in our eyes can provide some protection against UV rays, but this protection is limited. The lens can absorb some of the UV radiation, but over time, prolonged exposure to UV rays can still lead to damage.

Quality sunglasses with UV protection can block out these harmful rays and reduce the risk of eye damage. Look for sunglasses that provide 100% UV protection or are labeled as blocking both UVA and UVB rays.

So, next time you step out into the sun, remember to grab a pair of sunglasses not just for style, but for the health of your eyes too!

At the The Ocular Store we make sure that all our sunglasses and even prescription frames have UV protection coatings on so that our customers can enjoy going out in the sun without having to worry about their eyes getting damaged by the UV.
