Sunglasses

If you live in Richardson, you know how strong the sun can be during certain times of the year. You should wear sunglasses during those times, and even at times when the sun isn't at its peak. The staff at Richardson Eye Associates can help you and can also make prescription lenses for you or give you a vision exam. Come talk to our optometrist about any vision issues.

Sunglasses Help You See Better on Sunny Days

Trying to drive while squinting your eyes against the glare of the sun is not good. Even a hat or a sun visor can only do so much. When you wear sunglasses, you will be able to focus on the road without having your vision impaired by the sunlight. That will make for a smoother driving experience.

Sunglasses Protect Your Eyes Against UV Rays

The sun's rays can affect more than your skin. Your eyes can also be sensitive to them, especially if they are blue. Over time, those UV rays can affect your cornea, eyelids, lens, and retina. Even hiding your eyes under the brim of a baseball cap can only do so much. Talk to an optometrist about this - they can suggest the best sunglasses or transition eyeglasses to help protect your eyes from these rays.

Sunglasses Can Protect You While You're on The Water

Do you like to go boating or fishing? Water reflects the sun's light, so you need to keep your eyes from being hit at two angles. That's where sunglasses can work for you. Be sure to wear sunscreen to protect your skin, too.

Sunglasses Can Protect You During the Winter

The sun doesn't only affect your eyes when the temperatures are soaring. Do you enjoy skiing? You would do well to wear sunglasses then since the light bouncing off the snow can have an effect on your eyes and even contribute to snow blindness if you don't have your shades on.
