Summer is on its way and protecting your eyes from glare has so many reasons why it is important for the health of your eyes.

Just like your skin, your eyes cornea can get sunburned too.

Protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays with wither a transition colour change lens or sunglasses has many health benefits.

Guarding your eyes from glare and UV damage can protect and delay the onsets of cataracts and macular degeneration.

UV protection to your eyes can reduce progression of many eye health conditions and protect your eyes against cancers and lesions of the eyes.

Whilst standard sunglasses do provide UV protection, polarised sunglasses in addition to UV protection are specifically designed to reduce glare from light reflecting surfaces such as water, metal, glass and snow.
