To reduce exposure to UV rays and their effects, The 10th Street Eyecare Center recommends you invest in a set of sunglasses that can provide at least 98% protection from UVA and UVB rays. While cheaper sunglasses can range from poor to excellent UV protection, our sunwear lines provide the best protection from the sun, guaranteed. We carry a large selection of styles, and prescription lenses are an optional addition.

 

Another product to consider is polarized sunglasses. Polarized lenses block light reflected from surfaces like a flat road or smooth water. If you're involved in activities like water sports, skiing, golfing, biking, fishing, or even driving, polarized lenses can be very helpful in reducing glare and providing added peace of mind and safety.

 

Finally, if you have a youngster in the family, it’s never too early to fit them with sunglasses. Children under the age of 20 are the most susceptible to the damaging effects of UV light. One concern of parents is that their child will scratch, break, or lose the sunglasses. Fortunately, The 10th Street Eyecare Center carries impact-resistant frames for kids. We also offer a sunglass package deal to young sunglass wearers, including a cleaning cloth, hard case, and sunglass cords.
