Silhouette Sunglasses Offer You The Best Protection From The Sun
While most of us understand the need to protect our skin from the sun fewer know about the long-term damage it can cause to the delicate human eye. The sun emits powerful ultra violet rays that can cause illness and premature ageing.
Just as you would select the right sunscreen factor, it is as important to choose the suitable sunglasses to ensure your eyes receive the best protection possible.
The effects of the sun’s rays are not just limited to the summer months. Invisible UV, infrared and blue light rays can damage the retina, even on an overcast day. This high energy radiation exposure can be higher from reflective surfaces such as water and snow.
According to the RNIB Royal National Institute of Blind people, these rays can be attributed to a number of eye diseases, including cataracts. It is therefore important to wear sunglasses to prevent ocular damage and allowing us to enjoy the sun without risk to our eyes.
Silhouette’s IQ-Pol provides wearers with 100 protection against UVA, UVB and UVC rays, as well as against a high level of blue light. All our sunglasses offer the same level of UV protection whatever the filter category.
The Silhouette range provides wearers with eye protection but also for the eyelids and surrounding facial area. By providing such a high level of protection this can help combat skin cancer around the eye region.
Silhouette sunglasses provide the eyes with a very high level of protection, while also allowing the frames to be styled for each individual. Silhouette sunglasses not only look great, they provide clarity of vision regardless of the activity, making them essential all year round.
