We offer a wide range of sunglasses, from our own value for money ranges to the latest designer brands, whether they be bespoke to your prescription or non-prescription.

 

The 3 Types of Sunglasses

1. Cosmetic spectacles that do not give significant protection against the sun and are worn as fashion accessories

2. General purpose sunglasses for reducing glare in bright light or in circumstances such as driving in daylight.

3. Special purpose sunglasses for activities such as skiing or for people abnormally sensitive to glare.

 

 

What about Prescription Lenses?

Sunglasses are available to your normal optical prescription. Your practitioner will be pleased to advise you, but ensure that he or she knows that you wish to have UV protection built in.

 

 


Photochromic Lenses

These lenses darken on exposure to sunlight and should react efficiently in changing light conditions. They should not leave much tint present when the lens is not exposed to the sun.

 

Polarising Lenses

These lenses reduce reflections from wet or polished road surfaces, but they reveal the stress patterns in older types of toughened windscreens, which can be hazardous.
