We all love the sun but most of us know too much of it is dangerous and can lead to life-threatening conditions such as skin cancer, so a suitable SPF tanning lotion is a must for every member of the family. But the other vital health message we all need to get is how important it is to protect our eyes from UV damage. This too can lead to serious health conditions such as cancer of the eyelid and long term damage to sight, including cataracts and impaired vision. Children are particularly vulnerable to problems in later life if their delicate eyes aren’t properly protected from strong sunlight.
Sun-safe checklist for your eyes
Polaroid Eyewear has pioneered the development of sunglass lens technology and the company’s new UltraSight™ lenses now offer the best in UV protection and glare reduction. All Polaroid sunglasses feature UltraSight lenses and there is a simple checklist we can all use to make sure we are getting the right level of protection when choosing sunglasses:

Polaroid sunglasses are the only ones that meet all these quality checklist requirements – they simply are the best in UV protection, polarization and visual clarity. You can see more about eye health and UV protection on our website – www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/eyehealth
