The Role of Sunglasses in UV Protection

High-quality sunglasses are designed to block 100% of UVA and UVB rays. Just as sunscreen protects the skin from harmful radiation, sunglasses safeguard the eyes.

A prime example is the Woodies

Sunglasses, designed with lenses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays. This type of protection is vital even on cloudy days, as up to 80% of UV radiation can penetrate clouds.

The dark and polarized lenses of sunglasses like Woodies not only enhance visual comfort by reducing glare but also act as a barrier against UV radiation. These lenses absorb most of the UV radiation before it reaches your eyes, shielding your retina and the delicate skin around your eyes.
