Buying a new pair of sunglasses

Choosing a new pair of sunglasses can be a daunting task, especially with so many options available on the market. However, there are a few key factors to consider when looking to buy a new pair of sunglasses. In this article, we will discuss what to look out for when buying new sunglasses.

 

 

 

Protection from UV radiation: The most important factor to consider when buying sunglasses is UV protection. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun can damage your eyes, causing cataracts, macular degeneration and other eye problems. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that your sunglasses provide 100% protection from UV radiation. Look for sunglasses with a label indicating that they offer full UV protection, or ask your optician to verify that the sunglasses you are considering provide adequate protection.

 

 

Lens material: Sunglasses are available in a variety of lens materials, including glass, polycarbonate and acrylic. Each material has its advantages and disadvantages and you should choose a material that suits your lifestyle and preferences. Glass lenses are scratch resistant, but they are heavier and can shatter if dropped. Polycarbonate lenses are lighter and shatter-resistant, but they scratch easily. Acrylic lenses are also lightweight, but are less durable than polycarbonate and glass lenses.

 

 

 

Lens color: The color of the lens is a personal preference, but it can also affect how well you see. Grey and brown lenses are the most popular colours as they provide natural colour perception and reduce glare without distorting colours. Green lenses are also a great choice as they enhance contrast and reduce eye fatigue. Yellow and orange lenses improve contrast in low-light conditions, making them ideal for outdoor activities such as golf or fishing.

 

 

 

Polarized lenses: Polarized lenses are coated with a special filter that reduces glare from reflective surfaces such as water, snow and pavement. Polarized sunglasses can be particularly useful when driving, as they reduce glare from the road surface, making it easier to see. However, polarized lenses can also make it difficult to view certain LCD screens, such as those found on smartphones.

 

Frame Style: Sunglasses come in a variety of frame styles, including aviator, wayfarer, round and sport. The frame style you choose should complement your face shape and personal style. Aviator sunglasseshave a classic and timeless design and are suitable for most face shapes. Wayfarer sunglasses are versatile and look great on almost everyone. Round sunglassesare perfect for those with angular or square faces. Sports sunglasses are designed for outdoor activities and are usually more durable and lightweight than fashionable sunglasses. Application: A good fit is essential when choosing sunglasses. Sunglasses that fit well will provide maximum protection from UV rays and prevent glare from entering your eyes. Look for sunglasses that fit comfortably on your face and don't slip on your nose. The temple arms should be long enough to provide a comfortable fit, but not so long that they dig into your head. Choosing the right pair of sunglasses can be a challenge, but by taking the time to consider a few important factors, you can make an informed decision. Whether you're looking for a pair of fashionable sunglasses or functional sports sunglasses, it's important to prioritize UV protection, lens material, lens color, lens polarization, frame style, and fit. By carefully considering each of these factors, you can choose a pair of sunglasses that not only look great, but also provide the necessary protection and functionality to keep your eyes safe and comfortable in any situation. So, the next time you buy a new pair of sunglasses, make sure to keep these key factors in mind and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing you've made the right choice for your eyes.
