Protection from Cataracts, Macular Degeneration, & Pterygium

One of the foremost reasons for using reading sunglasses is that they offer a layer of protection for  your eyes. cataracts, macular degeneration, & pterygium are all conditions  that you’re more likely to suffer from if your eyes aren’t shielded  from direct  sunlight. Unfortunately, such ailments can make it much more difficult to read and become painful with age, so investing in sun readers is a great way to add another layer of protection to your eyes.

UV Protection

It’s no secret that UV rays from the sun can wreak havoc on your skin, but many people aren’t aware that they can also be particularly damaging to your eyes. Have you ever felt a burning sensation in your eyes after spending a day out in the sunshine? Overexposure from UV rays can lead to some of the vision problems mentioned above, but finding sun readers that offer UV protection is easy when shopping with Look Optic. With 100% UV protection in every pair, you’ll find it much easier to read in the sun and keep your eyes healthy at the same time.

Cancer Prevention

Did you know that a large number of skin cancers are found on the eyelids?This is often due to excessive UV ray exposure to the skin but can be easily prevented with a high-quality pair of reading sunglasses. The 100% UV protection in Look Optic’s reading sunglasses not only protects the surface of the eye itself, but also the surrounding sensitive skin, where it’s almost impossible to apply sunscreen yourself. If you have a history of cancer in your family or are at a higher risk of health complications due to UV exposure, adding as many layers of protection to your eyes as possible is essential.

Sunglasses Can Make You Feel Stylish
