For anyone who wears prescription glasses, the question of prescription sunglasses inevitably arises. Are they worth the extra cost? Let us examine the benefits.
The Problem with Clip-Ons
Clip-on sunglasses and transition lenses are common solutions, but they have drawbacks. Clip-ons can look awkward and scratch your lenses. Transition lenses do not darken inside cars because windshields block the UV light that triggers them.
Benefits of Prescription Sunglasses
- Full UV400 protection with your exact prescription
- No compromise on style — choose any frame
- Better peripheral vision than clip-ons
- Polarized options for glare reduction
- Comfortable for extended outdoor wear
Cost Considerations
Prescription sunglasses do cost more than non-prescription pairs. However, when you consider the convenience, comfort, and eye protection, many find the investment worthwhile.
