What Can I Expect When Getting Sunglasses?
Though UV rays are invisible to the naked eye, their potential damage is significant. UVC rays are filtered by the Earth's atmosphere, but UVA and UVB rays can lead to eye conditions, like cataracts, macular degeneration, pterygium, and photokeratitis.
At Advanced Vision & Achievement Center, Dr. Amin and Dr. Hardy present a diverse collection of sunglasses. Options range from prescription to nonprescription, clip-ons, and wraparounds that accommodate existing lenses. Additionally, we provide polarized sunglasses and those with light-responsive darkening lenses.

About UsSunglasses FAQs
How do polarized lenses differ from non-polarized lenses in sunglasses?
Polarized lenses are designed to reduce glare by filtering out horizontal light waves reflecting off surfaces like water, roads, and snow. This makes them particularly beneficial for activities such as driving, fishing, or skiing, where glare can be distracting or dangerous. Non-polarized lenses, while they still offer UV protection and tinting, do not have this glare-reducing capability. As a result, polarized lenses provide clearer and more comfortable vision in bright, reflective environments, but may not be necessary for everyday use in less challenging light conditions.
Are there sunglasses specifically designed for sports, and what features do they have?
Yes, there are sunglasses specifically designed for sports, offering features that cater to the demands of different activities. These sunglasses typically have a lightweight, durable frame to withstand impact and a snug fit to stay secure during vigorous movement. The lenses are often made from shatter-resistant materials, ensuring safety during cycling, running, or mountain climbing activities. Additionally, sports sunglasses may feature interchangeable lenses that allow you to adapt to varying light conditions, ensuring optimal visibility and performance.
How does the color of the lenses in sunglasses affect vision?
The color of the lenses in sunglasses can significantly impact your vision by altering contrast, depth perception, and color balance. For example, gray lenses reduce overall brightness while preserving natural color balance, making them ideal for everyday use. Brown or amber lenses enhance contrast and depth perception, which can be beneficial for activities like driving or playing sports. Yellow or gold lenses are excellent in low-light conditions as they increase contrast, making them suitable for foggy or overcast days. Green lenses balance contrast enhancement and color accuracy, offering versatile use in various lighting conditions.
