The Importance of Sunglasses and How They Protect Your Eyes

 

Sunglasses are much more than just a fashion statement, they're a must-have to protect your eyes in sunny Mauritius! No matter the weather, sunglasses are recommended to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and other damaging conditions. Plus, wearing quality sunglasses reduces eye strain and is very useful when driving.

 

 

 

How to Choose the Perfect Sunglasses for You?

 

So, how do you choose the right pair of sunglasses? Finding the perfect sunglasses is more than just a question of style. From the type of lenses to the tint of the lenses, there are a few aspects to consider before you buy:

 

Purpose 

 

Do you need sunglasses for better vision when driving? To protect your eyes and face from harmful sun rays? Or simply to look cool at the beach? Choose the pair that suits your needs.

 

Face Shape

 

To guarantee protection and style, don't forget that your sunglasses must be perfectly adapted to your face, with the frame centered and close. Good news, there are sunglasses for all face shapes!

 

UV Protection

 

Mandatory protection. Sunglasses must protect 100% against UVB and UVA rays. A small tip: Opt for wider frames! They cover more of your face, providing greater protection for your skin and eyes.
