Sports are a great way to stay active, but they can also put your eyes at risk if proper protection isn’t used.
According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, up to 90% of serious eye injuries can be prevented with protective eyewear. Sports like basketball, baseball, racquet sports and hockey are among the most common causes of sports-related eye injuries.
Protective eyewear made with polycarbonate lenses can help shield your eyes from impact while you play.
If you or your child participates in sports this spring, talk to your eye doctor about the right protective eyewear for your activity.
