Are all sunglasses UV protective?

Not all sunglasses provide adequate UV protection. It’s crucial to choose sunglasses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays or have UV 400 protection to ensure your eyes are shielded from harmful UV radiation. Poor-quality sunglasses without proper UV protection can actually be more harmful than not wearing sunglasses at all, as they can cause your pupils to dilate, allowing more UV radiation to enter your eyes.

How can I choose the right sunglasses for my face shape?

Finding sunglasses that complement your face shape can enhance your overall appearance. Round faces may look better with angular frames, while square faces may suit round or oval frames. Our experienced optometrists can provide personalised recommendations to help you choose sunglasses that not only protect your eyes but also enhance your facial features.

What are polarised sunglasses, and how do they work?

Polarised sunglasses contain a special filter that blocks horizontal light waves, effectively reducing glare from surfaces like water, roads and snow. This glare reduction significantly enhances visibility, reduces eye strain and makes outdoor activities safer and more comfortable.
