Here are the top reasons to try prescription sunglasses if you don't already have them.


THEY ARE EASY TO USE:

People who don't like wearing contact lenses may find prescription sunglasses very useful. It isn't easy to protect your eyes from the sun if you don't use contacts and want to do anything outside on a bright sunny day. Sure, some lenses convert to sunglasses in high light, but having to wait for them to change back might be bothersome. There are also clip-on coverings that may be worn over your regular glasses, but these can be inconvenient. Prescription sunglasses can be used while you're outside in the sun and will provide you with good vision as well as UV protection.

UV RAYS AND HIGH-ENERGY VISIBLE (HEV) BLUE LIGHT ARE BLOCKED:

UV radiation from the sun belongs to the non-visible light spectrum, while HEV blue light belongs to the visible spectrum and has a short wavelength, both of which can be detrimental to human eyes. Because we are exposed to certain forms of light throughout our lives, it can cause a range of visual problems as we age. Sunglasses are quite useful since they block these wavelengths of light, safeguarding our eyes and vision. Prescription sunglasses protect you from dangerous UV rays while also providing clear vision.

CATARACTS AND OTHER AGE-RELATED CONDITIONS ARE REDUCED:

Sunglasses, as previously said, can assist protect our eyes from damaging lightwaves. While cataracts are the most well-known side effect of sun exposure, few more are to be cautious of.

· Cataracts are a clouding of the lens that develops over time.

· Macular Degeneration is caused by injury to the retinal tissue.

· Pterygium: When a tissue begins to form over the eye's white area, it is known as pterygium. It can eventually obstruct eyesight by covering the cornea.

· Pinguecula: A yellow-ish growth or bump grows on the inner side of the eye, similar to pterygium. Changes in the conjunctiva, the tissue is covering the cornea, cause it.

· Photokeratitis is the swelling or inflammation of the cornea, which can be thought of as corneal sunburn.

WHEN YOU'RE OUTSIDE, YOU NEED CLEAR VISION:

When you're in the sun, having to squint all of the time can be convenient, but going without clear vision can be dangerous. You get the best of both worlds with prescription sunglasses: eye protection and the clear vision you need to stay safe and live your life.


What Is the Purpose of Prescription Sunglasses?


Your prescription lenses may be concentrating the sun's harmful rays onto your eyes if you use eyeglasses. Years of unprotected UV exposure cause cataracts, pingueculae growths, photokeratitis (eye sunburn - ouch! ), and macular degeneration. These conditions can result in irreversible vision loss or blindness. Prescription sunglasses are a stylish way to protect your eyes. To fit your personality, choose from a wide choice of colours, hues, designs, shapes, and materials from the world's leading designers. You're more likely to wear your prescription eyeglasses if you like them. Your eyes can be healthy and pleasant. Are you ready to place your order? Make an appointment with Heavyglare right now.
