Considerations when buying good sunglasses

Protecting your eyes from UV rays is necessary all year round for good eye health. Even more so in summer, when the intensity is at its peak. When buying sunglasses, you shouldn't base your decision solely on aesthetics. The quality of the lenses is essential to prevent eye injuries. Follow these simple, helpful tips to choose the model that's best for you:

• Buy models with UV400 protection or that block practically 100% of solar radiation.
• Large frames offer more protection because they prevent UV rays from entering through the sides.
• Dark-colored lenses do not provide more protection against UV rays. They simply reduce the amount of light passing through the lenses due to their opacity. Remember to check the indicated UV protection level.
• Price. It's possible to find glasses that offer all the necessary protection at a reasonable price.
