It can be aggravating and costly to lose your prescription eyeglasses' magnetic or clip-on sun shields. Maybe you don't even wear sunglasses. The sun, on the other hand, can be detrimental to your eyes, and failing to shield them can be dangerous. It might be time to invest in a pair of prescription sunglasses. Sunglasses with practically any lens prescription can be created. Maybe you've always wanted to drive off into the sunset and see the world without squinting. Perhaps you'd like to be able to read a book with bifocals at the beach. Sunglasses may be customized to fit your visual demands while also shielding your eyes from the sun's damaging rays.
Your selection of lenses
The UV-blocking lens is the most critical component of any pair of sunglasses, prescription or not. UV rays from the sun contribute to a variety of eye diseases, including cataracts, cancer, and eye growths. Sunglasses should be UV-protective to the fullest extent possible. Keep in mind that the tint in your sunglass lenses doesn't matter what color or how dark it is (tint has nothing to do with UV protection), as long as they provide near to 100 percent UV protection.
If you spend a lot of time near water, sand, snow, or other surfaces where light is significantly reflected, polarized prescription sunglasses might be considered. Polarized lenses reduce glare by filtering reflected light.
However, you should be aware that polarized lenses have some disadvantages. Cell phones, dashboard instruments, and other gadgets with LED (light-emitting diode) or LCD (liquid crystal diode) screens or displays, for example, will not be visible.
Examining lens materials
To meet your demands, prescription sunglass lenses can be produced from a number of materials.Many people prefer shatter-resistant sunglass lenses. Polycarbonate lenses are sturdy, impact-resistant plastic lenses. Trivex, another type of plastic, was developed by the military for shatterproof helicopter windshields and fighter jet canopies. With this lightweight, durable material, prescription sunglass lenses may now be made. Glass sunglass lenses can be produced to fit extremely exact prescription specs and offer great refractive error correction. Glass lenses, on the other hand, are hefty compared to today's lightweight materials, and they are prone to cracking and shattering. You can still request precise optical grade glass lenses if you believe they are the best option for your sun protection needs. This is something you should discuss with your ophthalmologist, optometrist, or optician. To see clearly, many people with strong eyeglass prescriptions need bigger lenses. They might want to explore prescription sunglasses with a high index. High-index lenses bend light more efficiently than regular lenses, requiring less material. As a result, they're smaller, lighter, and, some could argue, more appealing than standard lenses.
Is the cost of prescription sunglasses justified?
When weighing the value and expense of prescription sunglasses, consider the following four factors:
1. Calculate how much you spend on clip-on or magnetic sunshields for your prescription glasses each year. If you have to replace them frequently, the cost may be comparable to the cost of a new prescription sunglass.
2. Examine whether your lifestyle necessitates you spending a lot of time outside or driving during the day. Prescription sunglasses may be worth the extra cost due to their convenience.
3.Check to see whether local optical shop offers a discount if you buy prescription sunglasses and ordinary eyeglasses at the same time. You can also opt for prescription sunglasses online. Keeping the present condition in mind this is a safer option.
4.Consult your eye doctor about how prescription sunglasses might help you with your eyesight and lifestyle. They can guide you through the process of asking the correct questions and determining whether prescription sunglasses are a good fit for you.
