Sunglasses

Prescription sunglasses provide clarity of vision while shielding your eyes from harmful UV rays, making them a must-have for anyone outdoors. Unlike standard sunglasses, prescription sunglasses ensure optimal vision while protecting your eyes from glare and sun damage.

Types of Eyeglasses and Sunglasses

Blue Light Filtering: Blue light filtering glasses are designed to block or absorb blue light emitted from digital screens, reducing eye strain and discomfort caused by prolonged use of computers, tablets, and smartphones.
Transitions: Transitions lenses automatically adjust to changing light conditions, darkening in bright sunlight and becoming clear indoors.
Polarized Sun: Polarized sunglasses reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, snow, and glass, offering clearer vision and enhanced comfort in bright environments.
Anti-Reflective: Anti-reflective (AR) coating on eyeglasses reduces reflections on the lenses, providing clearer vision, especially in low-light conditions.
Intermediate / Near Focus: Glasses with intermediate or near focus lenses are designed to enhance vision at specific distances, such as for reading or computer work.
Designer Frames: Designer frames blend style and functionality, featuring high-quality materials and craftsmanship.
Ray Ban Sunglasses: Known for their classic designs like the Aviator and Wayfarer, Ray-Ban offers high-quality lenses that provide excellent UV protection and comfort.

Why Should Patients Consider Prescription Glasses for Outdoor Use

For patients who already wear eyeglasses, prescription sunglasses eliminate the need to choose between sun protection and clear vision. This is particularly beneficial for activities such as driving, sports, or enjoying a sunny day, as clear, unobstructed vision is vital for safety and comfort.

Transitioning between indoor and outdoor environments becomes seamless when you have a pair of prescription sunglasses designed explicitly for outdoor use. Whether you need single-vision, bifocals, or progressive lenses, prescription sunglasses can be customized to suit your vision requirements.

How Frequently Should Patients Change Their Prescription Glasses?

It’s generally recommended to have your eyes examined every one to two years, depending on your age, vision needs, and any underlying eye conditions. During these exams, your eye doctor will determine whether your prescription has changed and if you need a new pair of glasses.

Keeping your prescription up to date is vital for maintaining clear, comfortable vision and avoiding unnecessary eye strain. Additionally, the lenses in your glasses can wear down over time. Scratches, smudges, and general wear and tear can affect your vision quality, even if your prescription hasn’t changed.
