16.05.2012 QUALITY SUNGLASSES THAT ARE GREAT FOR ALL DAY USE, FEATURED PRODUCT MAUI JIM STINGRAY

Having an excellent pair of sunglasses, even if you have never purchased and expensive pair of eyewear before, really does make significant difference when sunlight is strong. The main reasons are down to health as cheap variations often have a temporary lens cover that offers UV protection for your eyes, once this rubs off you are actually making matters worse as the sunglasses filter (with no UV protection) means your pupil diameter opens further to allow more light in, thus increasing UV damage. Other health issues come into play with poor quality sunglasses, a bad quality lens means objects are often distorted and your eyes have to strain to adjust to the change in magnification, quality lenses do not do this.

Other than the direct health advantages of having quality lenses to combat UV damage there are also advantages against eye strain, and in particular, reflective glare. Even quality lenses that do not have a polarized lens filter cannot filter reflective glare (light that bounces up off reflective surfaces such as water and glass). This is where a little knowledge goes a long way as a polarised lens manufacturer such as Maui Jim have a polarised filter as standard, other brands such as Ray-Ban sunglasses and Oakley Sunglasses do not have polarized lenses as standard and you pay extra for this type of lens filter. So why does a polarized lens benefit the wearer? Reflective light is distorted and the rays actually come to your eyes at a strange angle that normal sunglass lenses cannot filter, the effect is even worse if you have no sunglasses. It is important to mention at this point that if you have a quality pair of sunglasses and they are not polarised, you still have one hundred percent UV protection but you will squint as it is the glare that a polarised lens filters. Without a polarised lens your squinting causes your eyes to strain and fatigue, thus giving you headaches and a shorter concentration level.

The other benefit of having a quality pair of sunglasses for all day use is that your eyes will not tire from wearing them, thus encouraging you to wear your eyewear for longer durations. Most people with poor quality sunglasses take them off after a short while as eyestrain and discomfort dictates that you remove the sunglasses, unfortunately it is this exact period when your eyes need the added benefit of a good quality lens in order to allow your eyes to relax.

Quality sunglasses also mean a quality fit, in the instance of Maui Jim Stingray, the frame is made of a superb high quality material named acetate that is strong, causes no skin irritation and has superb three-point fit that spreads the weight of the frame to ensure all day comfort. In basic terms this means that Maui Jim stingray sunglasses feel great on and do not pinch at your nose or cause skin irritation which means you wear them longer. The styling is also classical so they look just as great whilst out driving as they do in your best work outfit walking to work. Our advice, spend that extra bit more and get yourself a quality pair of sunglasses that will last several years or more and give your eyes the help they need to stay healthy and vibrant!
