UNDERSTANDING LENS MATERIAL<br />

AND OPTIONS<br />

Sunglasses selection is not just about style. In<br />

sunny climates such as the Caribbean, proper<br />

sunglasses are essential protection for your eyes<br />

from harmful UV rays, and consider polarization<br />

technology that reduces glare and heightens<br />

contrast in your vision.<br />

UV Protection<br />

Your sunglasses must provide protection from ultraviolet radiation, a <strong>com</strong>ponent of sunlight<br />

that contributes to eye disease. The FDA, the government agency that oversees sunglass<br />

manufacture and sales in the U.S., re<strong>com</strong>mends you look for sunglasses with lenses that<br />

block 99-100% of UVA and UVB radiation. The label should read either UV 400 or 100%<br />
