Sunglasses are not just for fashionistas or hipsters, nor are they only meant for the summer wardrobe. They are worn all round the year with an underlying motive of protecting the eyes from damage from the sun’s harmful UV rays.

Sunglasses are not meant for men and women only. They play a much more important role in protecting the eye health of young kids. Growing children's eyes are 80% more transparent than adults and can easily allow harmful UV rays to pass through. Hence, without the protection of sunglasses, the sun exposure in younsters and adolescents is higher, which leads to burns around the eyes also known as photo keratitis, abnormal growths on the eyes, and glaucoma. It is easier to wear sunglasses than to treat these conditions.
Sunglasses not only protect the eyes from harmful UV rays, it also reduces eyestrain in bright conditions, protects eyes from flying debris, reduces headaches and even prevents wrinkles on the forehead. Finding the right pair is the key to comfort. Be it driving to work or climbing a mountain; be it a man, woman, or a child; whether oval, round or square jawed faces, ...
... sunglasses are available based on the utility, age, gender and shape of the face.

Sunglasses come in different shapes and sizes to fit different faces. Some of the popular ones are aviators, oversized sunglasses, shutter shades, teashades, wayfarers, wraparounds etc.

UV protection
The UV radiation in small doses boosts vitamin D production. But too much of it can cause problems like sunburns and skin cancer. It can also damage the eyes. Therefore buy sunglasses that provide 100% protection against UVA/UVB
Fit
An ill-fitting pair of sunglasses can let UV rays seep into your eyes.
Tips while trying on a pair of sunglasses
The frames should fit snugly on the nose and ears without any discomfort.
The weight of sunglasses should be evenly distributed between the ears and nose.
Light frames should be preferred as they do not result in any friction at the contact points.
The eyelashes should not contact the frame.
Polarized Lenses
These reduce the glare at the beach, in the snow, or out on the water.
Sunglasses are not just an accessory. They are basically sunscreen for your eyes and should be encouraged for kids as well. Investing in a good pair of sunglasses is worth the money because they combine style, class, and functionality, all in one.
