Kids Need Sun Protection Too!! PDF Print E-mail

It's sunny outside! And just like adults, children need the comfort and protection of good quality sun wear. Children's eyes are more vulnerable to UV related ocular damage since they receive three times the annual exposure to UV rays than the average adult. By the time children have reached the age of 18, their eyes have absorbed a major portion of damaging ultra violet rays. Sunwear choices include a variety of options. Photochromic lenses are convenient for children because the darkening of the lenses is triggered by the sun's UV rays. No need to change to sunglasses. Polarized lenses are especially nice when spending time around water, as they block blinding glare and reflection. Polycarbonate lenses are impact resistant and are always a wise choice for your active child's sunwear. Your child's glasses prescription can be made into sunglasses for optimum protection and vision. Stop in and take a look at our children's sunwear soon.
