24.01.2022 You probably know that too much exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause sunburn and skin cancer. But did you know UV also can harm your eyes? Extended exposure to the sun's UV rays has been linked to significant eye problems, including cataracts, macular degeneration and pterygia. To protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, you should wear sunglasses that block 100 percent UV whenever you are outdoors in daylight.... We have a wide range of prescription and non-prescription sunglass options to suit every budget. See better. See us.

19.01.2022 Blinding Glare & Polarization: Outdoors we are surrounded by glare and reflection, which can even bounce off particles in the air. When light hits smooth reflective surfaces - such as roads, water, car bonnets, snow, buildings, wet surfaces or even the bright chrome of the car in front - the light becomes polarized. This polarization of light means the vertical waves are absorbed while horizontal light waves bounce off the surface to create blinding glare. This blinding glare... can be debilitating and even perilous when on the road driving, cycling or walking. NuPolar polarized lenses absorb and eliminate the horizontal reflected glare, while allowing the remaining light to pass through to improve visual acuity and contrast. When you next get prescription sunglasses, ask us about putting NuPolar polarized lenses into your frame. See better. See us. See more
