Sunglasses are both a “must have” fashion accessory and a “must have” for your eyes protection. Look Eyecare is delighted to offer some of the most stylish sunglasses for all ages. We have a wide range of prescription and non-prescription sunglasses, all with 100% UV protection. This is important as we recognise the damaging effects of the sun and the part it plays in such eye conditions as cataracts and macular degeneration. Our designer frames include Ray-Ban, Swarovski, Gucci, Hugo Boss and Guess. We can also prescribe prescription sunglass lenses to most frames.

Although car sun visors are helpful in summer, sometimes the angle of the sun during winter is too low for them to make any difference. If conditions are bright, try to take a spare pair of sunglasses with you when driving – or, even better, keep a spare pair in your glove compartment so that you're never caught without them.

If possible, it's best to opt for sunglasses that feature polarised lenses, as these are more effective than normal lenses at combating glare. They work by filtering out the blinding glare and so improving visibility. Although typically used by fishermen to combat glare on water surfaces, they're ideal when driving on wet roads and many recreational activities.
