When it comes to sun protection, we often think about sunscreen for our skin, wide-brimmed hats, and seeking shade. However, one of the most vulnerable parts of our body—our eyes—is frequently overlooked. The delicate tissues in our eyes are highly susceptible to damage from ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays is not just about comfort; it’s about preserving your vision and preventing long-term damage that can significantly affect your quality of life.

Polarized sunglasses have become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. Not only do they protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, but they also reduce glare and improve visibility, making them an excellent choice for outdoor activities such as driving, boating, skiing, and fishing. In this blog, we'll take a closer look at polarized sunglasses, how they work, and why they're a smart investment for anyone who spends time outdoors.

Polarised lenses have been available for decades but over time much research has been undertaken to assess the ocular benefits of polarised lenses.
