You'll want to consider three factors:

1. Quality: do they offer real UV protection?
2. Lens Color: which colors are most comfortable in bright light?
3. Style: Which frames look the best?

1. Protect Your Eyes: Buy auality lenses! Exposure to (UV) light can lead to serious damage like premature cataracts and macular degeneration.

But don't all dark color lenses help? No! In fact, cheap "street" sunglasses (never mind the "100% UV blocker" stickers) can make things worse, because the pupils get larger behind tinted lenses, allowing more harmful ultraviolet rays into the eyes.

Please buy quality sunglasses that offer true UV protection. Generally, you're safe with a name-brand pair. They don't have to cost a fortune. (All our sunglasses offer maximum UV protection, whether prescription or not).
