Sunglasses in Carmel

UV Protection & Style: The Best of Both Worlds

Sunglasses are as safe as they are effortlessly cool. And they can help keep your vision in tiptop shape if you make it a habit to wear them.

The science is in! Age-related macular degeneration and cataracts can come from chronic UV exposure without adequate eye protection.

You can always get a UV coating on your custom lenses. But a great pair of prescription sunglasses—with 100% UVA and UVB protection—can offer a lot more life-long comfort.
