Are your sunglasses UV protected

As the sun begins to shine and your sunglasses are something you rarely leave the house without.

It’s time to think, what condition are they in, do they need an adjustment, is the prescription up to date.

The biggest question of all is…. DO THEY HAVE UV PROTECTING LENSES ?!?!?!?

As this video from the BBC’s Fake Britain points out in a worst case scenario, the importance of wearing proper UV protecting sunglasses.

All the sunglasses we provide to our patients come with UVA & UVB protection as standard – we even offer polarised prescription and non prescription sunglasses.
