Sun protection for children all year round
Children, just like adults, need sun protection. Sunglasses protect the eyes from UV rays, which are present in all seasons – even on cloudy or cold days. Properly fitted sunglasses for children reduce the risk of long-term damage such as cataracts and other vision problems.
Children's sunglasses are designed for small faces and should have 100% UV protection for optimal safety. An early habit of wearing sunglasses helps children take responsibility for their eye health and prevents both eye strain and headaches caused by glare.
Investing in sunglasses with the correct UV filter is an investment in your child's well-being and health - regardless of whether you are outdoors in winter, spring or summer.
