Sunglasses

 

 When you purcahse a pair of sunglasses from us you can be sure all of the following important details have already been taken into consideration when deciding which ranges to stock.

 UV Protection - When deciding on a pair of sunglasses make sure they offer full UV protection. A tint with no UV protection could do more harm than good. Look for BS 2724 a British Standard setting out aspects such as quality, strength and UV protection. Sunglasses marked with BS 2724 should also carry a shade number. Look for a shade number of 3.1 or 4.1 for the best protection from UV light.

 Comfortable Tint - Sunglasses are available with a variety of different colour lenses. Usually brown, grey or green however, some have bright pink or blue lenses. So long as the sunglasses you choose protect from UV light the colour of the tint is usually just a matter of choice. Try looking through different coloured lenses to see which you prefer.

 Safe Lenses - Check if the lenses are plastic or glass. If they are glass ensure it is either toughened or laminated for enhanced safety.

 Crisp Vision - If you purchase none prescription sunglasses make sure the lenses are good quality. Look through he lenses and make sure they do not distort your vision, especially towards the edges. Looking through imperfect lenses could lead to eye strain or headaches.

 Comfortable Frames - Finally always ensure you are happy with the way your sunglasses fit. Bear in mind you may be wearing them in hot whether. Do they rest on your checks? Will they slip down? Ask for advice if you are not sure.
