Benefits of Prescription Sunglasses
Spending long periods of time outside can lead to various eye problems if they're left unprotected. One way to better protect your eyes is to wear sunglasses while participating in outdoor activities. At Springfield Opticians, not only do we provide a wide range of name-brand sunglasses, but we can also fit various pairs with your unique prescription. If you are looking for prescription sunglasses in the Chadds Ford, Springfield, or Holmes area, contact our team for a professional assessment.
UV Protection
UV rays from the sun can cause various skin and eye problems. If you spend a lot of time outdoors, being out there without protection from these rays can cause many vision problems. Patients often suffer from photokeratitis and even cataracts due to overexposure to UV rays. Our sunglasses come with UV protection that will prevent these rays from damaging your eyes. It also protects the skin around your eyes from the sun. If you don't want the area around your eyes to be wrinkled, sunglasses can help with that as well.
Protection against Wind
When the wind is blowing in your eyes, it can cause the natural moisture to evaporate more quickly. This can cause dry eye or various other eye conditions. While most people think sunglasses are only helpful during the summer, winter wind is one of the leading causes of dry eyes. Sunglasses prevent wind from drying out your eyes during any time of the year.
Dirt and Debris Protection
The wind can pick up debris and small particles that can easily get into your eyes. As a result, you may experience a gritty feeling or even suffer from a cut or scratch on your eye. Wearing sunglasses outdoors helps prevent these particles from getting into your eyes, protecting them from becoming uncomfortable or injured by debris.
