Sunglasses

The Perfect Sunglasses are at Eye Health Centres

Sunglasses are a first line of defense for your eyes. Available in various lens and frame colors, sizes and shapes, they protect your eyes from damage caused by UV exposure, and prevent eye discomfort from light that is too intense. Sunglasses are important for everyone, but especially for children, as it has been suggested that their eyes transmit more high-energy visible light (HEV) and may be more susceptible to damage. Before you buy sunglasses from a depatrmtent store for you or your children, remember that an eye care professional such as the Optometrists and Opticians at Eye Health Centres have the best care of your vision at heart.

The light from the sun and the resultant glare is intensified in certain reflective or high glare situations such as when driving, while on the water, in the winter, and in the sky. This is why sunglasses are a must in snowy weather, for winter sports, flying, fishing, boating and other water sports. Polarized sunglasses reduce glare and allow better visual clarity, even allowing you to see into the water instead of seeing the glare on top. Whether you choose them for fashion, function or protection, Eye Health Centres has the perfect sunglasses for you.

The only way you can be sure of getting sunglasses that meet your specific needs and provide the ultimate eye protection is by visiting an optometrist or knowledgable optician at one of our Optical Boutiques in Calgary or Regina.
