Prescription Sunglasses
These days, sunglasses are not only highly fashionable but remarkably functional for a wide variety of activities. Sport and athletic sunglasses, for instance, offer eye protection, reduce glare, and enhance contrast to enhance performance in various outdoor situations. Individuals with prescription eyewear can also benefit from the advantages of these specialty eyewear by purchasing prescription lenses.
Prescription sunglasses are available for virtually all vision prescriptions including those for farsightedness, nearsightedness, and astigmatism, as well as bifocal and progressive lenses. Almost any sunglasses can have prescription lenses added, as long as the lens shape doesn’t affect vision. This can be a problem with very wide wraparound lenses. Therefore if the latest pair of designer sunglasses catches your eye, there should be no problem in fitting a prescription lens to the frame.
You can also get prescription lenses in different materials and with various coatings. These include polarized lenses for glare protection, tinted lenses, anti-scratch coatings, and durable options like polycarbonate or Trivex lenses.
Even if you wear contact lenses, prescription sunglasses are a great option when you don’t want to wear your contacts. This can be when your eyes feel dry or irritated (like during allergy season or in dusty or sandy places), when you go swimming (it’s not recommended to wear contact lenses while swimming to avoid infection), or when you simply don’t want to deal with the inconvenience of contacts. Prescription sunglasses give you yet another option for comfort, safety and great vision.
Photochromic Lenses
Photochromic lenses are another alternative for the prescription eyeglass wearer. These lenses darken in response to sunlight turning your regular prescription eyewear into prescription sunglasses. Photochromic lenses are a good option for people who wear glasses and don’t want to carry two pairs. No matter the shape or style, you can protect your eyes and enhance your outdoor appearance or sports performance by wearing prescription sunglasses.
Polarized sunglasses
For reduced glare and increased clarity in your vision, a pair of polarized sunglasses can’t be beat. An invisible filter is included in your lenses, which makes images look sharper and clearer while reducing the brightness of the sun’s glare. Ensure that your polarized sunglasses provide 100% UV protection, and keep in mind that you can get polarized sunglasses with or without a prescription.
It can be helpful to have an extra pair of eyeglasses. So why not select a second pair that enhances your comfort and clarity of vision while engaging in activities you enjoy the most?
