Protect Your Sight From the Sun
No matter the season, your eyes need protection from ultraviolet (UV) rays that can damage your sight and increase your risk of eye diseases. Light reflected by the sea, sand, or snow on sunny days can reach your eyes and potentially damage your vision, so it is important to wear sunglasses whether you’re at the ski hill or the beach.
Cloudy days don’t offer much protection, either. UV rays can easily penetrate clouds, so overcast skies are not a reason to abandon your sun protection.
Even if you’re blessed with perfect vision, sun safety is still important. We offer a wide selection of sunglasses in both prescription and non-prescription options.
Come and see us today to and find your next favourite pair of sunglasses.
Request AppointmentSelecting Your Sunglasses
Choosing sunglasses can be challenging with all of the options available. Our team has one goal in mind—to find your sunglasses that protect your eyes and make you feel good too.
There are a few things to consider when selecting your sun protection:
- Darker sunglasses don’t necessarily offer more UV protection.
- Polarized lenses reduce glare but don’t protect your eyes from UV rays, though some polarized lenses do offer sun safety too.
- Larger lenses offer more protection since they cover your entire eye area.
- Price means very little—look for high UV protection, not high price tags to determine how sun-safe the lenses are.
Our Brands
Blake Kuwahara
A collection of frames that are a mashup of my colliding aesthetics with special attention paid to sculpting and tactility. They are artful but wearable. By using laborious production techniques and a lot of handwork, an inner silhouette is encased in an unexpectedly fresh outer shape. This seamless fusion of two frames and the juxtaposition of contrasting form and color create a design tension that is thoroughly modern yet comfortably familiar. A paradox. Like me.
