Get Eye Protection in Style with Our Sunglasses

Our sunglasses not only look great, but they also offer top-notch protection for your eyes. With lenses that block harmful UVA/UVB rays, you can trust that your eyes will be safe from damage. Our sunglasses use mostly UV400 lenses made of poly-carbonate, which are highly effective at blocking UV rays. And the best part? You don't have to break the bank for quality protection.

In fact, research has shown that high prices do not guarantee optimal UVA protection. According to a 1995 study, expensive brand names do not necessarily provide better UV protection. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has also stated that price alone cannot be relied upon as an indicator of quality. Even an unscientific survey found that a generic $9.95 pair of glasses offered slightly better protection than some branded sunglasses.

So why pay more when you can get the same, if not better, protection with our affordable sunglasses? Protect your eyes in style without sacrificing quality or breaking the bank.

Polarised lenses are a type of sunglass lens that reduces glare and enhances visual clarity, particularly in bright sunlight or around reflective surfaces like water, snow, or metal. They have a special coating that filters out horizontal light waves that cause glare, while allowing in vertical light waves that provide clear vision. This can reduce eye strain and make activities like driving, boating, or fishing much safer and more comfortable. Polarised lenses are available in a variety of colors and tints, and can be incorporated into prescription or non-prescription sunglasses.
