Dependable Sun Protection for Every Family Member

The sun plays an incredible role in our mental health and overall well-being. But the sun’s UV rays also present many risks to our skin and eyes. UV exposure can increase your risk of:

Cataracts
Age-related macular degeneration
Eyelid skin cancer
Corneal sunburn
Tissue growths on the surface of the eye

Sunglasses are especially important for kids. Approximately 50% of lifetime exposure to UV radiation occurs before age 18. So, it’s essential to keep children under 6 months old out of direct sunlight and ensure kids of all ages are properly protected from the sun.

There’s an easy way to protect your eyes outdoors: wearing sunglasses that provide 100% UVA and UVB protection. We carry a large selection of prescription and non-prescription sunglasses at Dr. David Oliphant Optometry. Come by our showroom to see what effective sun protection looks like.
