sunglasses and sport glasses

People wear sunglasses to ease the discomfort and vision obstruction that bright sunlight causes. What you might not know is that there are more reasons why you should wear sunglasses. Indirect UV light from the sun can damage your eyes and may be a cause of glaucoma. UV rays also cause fatigue. Wearing sunglasses reduces eye damage and fatigue.

choosing sport glasses for safety

Sport goggles and polycarbonate lenses offer the best safety for people with active lifestyles. Sport goggles in particular are advised for those who are involved in sports as a high number of people are injured or even lose an eye while playing sports. Your prescription can easily be fitted into sport goggles.

New frame and lens materials offer lightweight and durable protection. Polycarbonate lenses are impact-resistant and come with UV protection. They are the best choice for sport glasses.

Crown Vision Center features the following types of Sunglasses and Sport Glasses:

POLARIZED LENSES

These lenses reduce glare, protect against UV rays and offer the most realistic and natural color perception. Everyone benefits from UV protection, especially those who drive and are bothered by glare. These lenses are particularly beneficial to those involved in water sports.

MIRRORED LENSES

Mirrored lenses have a fashionable mirror coating which protects against extremely bright conditions by reflecting light away from the eye. These lenses are particularly beneficial for those who ski or are involved in other winter sports.

PRE TINTED POLYCARBONATE LENSES

These lenses are impact resistant, very lightweight and thin, and come with UV protection. Active teenagers and adults benefit from these lenses, especially if they have a high prescription.

Crown Vision Center offers a wide variety of designer sport glasses and goggles for those who bike, ski, swim, and are involved in team sports; for every lifestyle and every member of your family. We carry such popular names as Ray Ban, Oakley, and Bolle.
