ABOUT SUNGLASSES & UV PROTECTION

What exactly are UV rays?

Ultraviolet (UV) rays are located just past the violet portion of the visible light spectrum; sunlight is the main source.

UV light is broken into three different types: UVA, UVB and UVC.

• UVA has longer wavelengths and passes through glass easily; experts disagree about whether or not UVA damages the eyes.
• UVB rays are the most dangerous, making sunglasses and sunscreen a must; they don't go through glass.
• UVC rays do not reach the Earth because its atmosphere blocks them.

The following is a list of the various sunglass lens categories:

Blue-blockers-block blue light and usually has amber lenses. These lenses are used mostly by skiers, hunters, boaters and pilots who use them to heighten contrast. .Both polarized lenses and anti-reflective coating lenses cut reflected glare. Polarized lens are generally worn by those who play water and snow sports. The anti-reflective coating reduce glare caused by light reflecting off the back surface of the sunglass lens.

Mirror-coated lenses limit the amount of light entering the eyes. Because they are highly reflective coatings applied to the front surface of the lenses to reduce the amount of light entering the eye.

Gradient lenses are tinted from the top down, so that the top of the lens is darkest. Double gradient refers to lenses that are also tinted from the bottom up, the top and bottom are darkest and the middle has a lighter tint.

Photo-chromic lenses adjust their level of darkness based on the amount of UV light they're exposed to.

Sunglass tints do not affect the amount of ultraviolet light that reaches the eyes, and dark sunglass lenses are no more effective at protecting the eyes then light ones; UV protection is completely independent of both color and sunglass lens thickness.

SOME MYTHS ABOUT SUNGLASSES & UV PROTECTION

Myth #1: Sunglasses with 100% UV protection are expensive
False: You do not have to pay a premium for proper UV protection. While more expensive sunglasses may offer more stylish frames, higher quality lenses, sharper images and less glare, it is very easy to find inexpensive glasses that offer 100% UV protection.

Myth #2: Lenses with darker tints are more protective than lenses with a lighter tint
False: The tint of the lens has nothing to do with the UV protection of the glasses. A clear lens with no tint and 100% UV protection is better for your eyes than dark, heavily tinted sunglasses without UV protection. In fact, dark lenses without adequate UV protection are actually worse for your eyes than not wearing glasses at all, because the dark tint causes your pupils to become dilated, thus exposing your eyes to more harmful UV light.

Myth #3: You should have UV coating put on your lenses for extra protection
False: If your glasses already have UV protection, they do not need to have added protection put on them.

Myth #4: Photochromic lenses don't block out UV rays as well as regular sunglasses
False: As long as they offer 100% UV protection, photochromic (such as Transitions-brand lenses) lenses provide the same level of UV protection as regular sunglasses.

Myth #5: Polarized, anti-glare lenses are all you need to protect your eyes from UV rays
False: While polarized and anti-glare lenses may offer better image clarity, a more comfortable viewing experience and give you better vision when driving or playing sports, they have nothing to do with UV protection. That being said, most polarized lenses also offer adequate UV protection. Again, if you are in doubt, have your sunglasses checked by an optometrist.

Myth #6: Lens color is important when it comes to blocking UV rays
False: Just like lens tint, lens color has nothing to do with protecting your eyes from UV rays.

Myth #7: Yellow- or amber-tinted “Blue Blocker” lenses offer more protection than regular sunglasses
False: While some experts argue that the so-called “Blue Blocker” lenses block additional light waves that are harmful, research has yet to prove this for certain, and “Blue Blockers” are currently viewed by most experts as a personal preference choice.

Myth #8: Children don't need sunglasses as much as adults
False: Children often spend even more time in the sun than adults, and need proper UV protection just as much. It is also far more common to find cheap children's sunglasses that do not provide adequate UV protection. Always have your children's sunglasses tested for proper UV protection.

Myth #9: You don't need sunglasses on a cloudy day
False: UV rays are just as potent on a cloudy day as they are on a clear day, and proper eye and skin protection is always needed.

Look for UV protection

Don’t be deceived by color or cost. The ability to block UV light is not dependent on the darkness of the lens or the price tag. While both plastic and glass lenses absorb some UV light, UV absorption is improved by adding certain chemicals to the lens material during manufacturing or by applying special lens coatings. Always choose sunglasses that are labeled as blocking 99-100% of UV rays. Some manufacturers’ labels say "UV absorption up to 400nm." This is the same thing as 100% UV absorption
