While it\u2019s all fun and vibrant when it comes to the latest summer styles, our sunglasses should be more than just another accessory piece.<\/p>\n<p>Notice those wrinkles around the corners of your eyes? Well, they\u2019re a product of spending too much time under the sun. This is because while the sun is a great source of Vitamin D, it also radiates harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays \u2013 both UVA and UVB. UVA rays penetrate deep into the skin tissue, while UVB rays are responsible for sunburn. UV rays breakdown the collagen in your skin which help to provide structure to your skin. Unprotected exposure to these UV rays can cause wrinkles to appear. So before you head to the beach for a good tan, besides slapping on your favourite sunscreen lotion, remember to head to the shop to get a good pair of sunnies that block out those harmful UVA and UVB rays from damaging the skin around your eyes. Those UV-protection sunglasses won\u2019t just deter wrinkles from forming, but also protect your eyes from sun damage. If exposed to too much UV rays, you run the risk of developing cataracts, which is a clouding of the eye\u2019s lens, which causes blurry vision.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Other considerations when choosing the best sunglasses<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rocketeyewear.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1084\" src=\"http:\/\/mataasia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/rocket-eyewear.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mataasia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/rocket-eyewear.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mataasia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/rocket-eyewear-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mataasia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/rocket-eyewear-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mataasia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/rocket-eyewear-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/mataasia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/rocket-eyewear-800x534.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After you\u2019ve picked out a pair of sunglasses with the best UVA and UVB coverage, you may think about the colours of the lens. Just remember, a black-coloured pair of lenses, it doesn\u2019t exactly equate to complete UV coverage. As\u00a0your pupil\u00a0controls how much light enters and exits, when you wear a pair of dark sunglasses, the pupil dilates for more light to enter. If your sunglasses don\u2019t have the best UV coverage, you\u2019d be letting in more UV into the back of your eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Last, but definitely not least, you may want to consider the material of the sunglasses you\u2019re intending to buy. Plastic is a lightweight and break-proof option and hence good for sports. Glass on the other hand is scratch-resistant and considered very clear. Besides these 2 options, you can consider polycarbonate lenses. These are lightweight, thin and inherently block 100% of UVA &amp; UVB rays, though some have mentioned that polycarbonate isn\u2019t as clear as glass. Be it plastic, or glass, or some new trendy polycarbonate material, be sure to buy one that suits your tastes, preferences, and needs best. Whatever the case, remember to protect your eyes from the sun and those harmful UV rays.
