Your eyesight is priceless and deserves the best possible care. That’s why it is important to protect your eyes against glare and ultraviolet(UV) light by wearing quality sunglasses.
But not all sunglasses are the same. For maximum performance you should choose a pair with optical quality lenses. Not only will they shade your eyes against harsh sunlight, they’ll also protect you from the hidden risk of ultraviolet rays.
