As temperatures warm up and we start spending more time outside, it's important to make sure you have good (and stylish 😎) eye protection.

Did you know that sunglasses, or at least sunglass lenses, regularly need to be replaced?

In fact, the UV protection that sunglasses provide deteriorates over time. While you may adore your current ones, if you’ve been rocking those shades for several years, it might be time to get a new pair.
In addition to the UV-blocking properties, anti-reflective and anti-scratch coatings wear down, and the frame material may become brittle over the years. A few points to consider:

- Make sure they’re labeled 100% UV protection or UV400.
- Remember that cheap counterfeit eyewear may not provide much-needed ultraviolet protection and can be dangerous to your eyes. So, if the price of a renowned brand is too good to be true, it's probably a fake.
- Consider the size and fit of the sunglasses. Plenty of coverage is important for outdoor activities and protection.

Our team will fit you with the perfect sunglasses tailored to your vision needs and lifestyle - come stop by!
