You must have noticed that all that was trendy and fashionable in the past is coming back. It might be with a twist, but still it brings me back to the time when I was 12. The sunglasses for this season/year are in one word amazing. The colors, the design, the style , by wearing these sunglasses you will feel like another person.
It is important to find the perfect style for your face but more importantly it is important to protect your eyes from the sunshine we have in Curacao.
Wearing sunglasses can prevent your eyes from short and long term eye damage due to the ultra violet rays.
Many studies have shown that the ultraviolet exposure coming from the sun increases the risk of cataracts and many other types of blindness and even eye cancer. Therefore, a few hours spent under an intense UV exposure with cheap sunglasses without UV protection can lead you to blindness or eye cancer, as scary as it may sound.
The following items are important when choosing the perfect sunglasses:
- Aim for 100% UV Protection.
- Bigger is always better. Remember that your eyes need good coverage.
- Having dark sunglasses does not mean that your eyes are better protected.
- Choose polarized sunglasses.
- Cost is not a factor. Not because the sunglasses are extremely expensive it means that they are better. Always look for the 100% UV protection and the polarization of the sunglasses.
