Wellbeing A-Z -Sunglasses

Sunglasses are essential for protecting eyes from harmful UVA and UVB rays, reducing the risk of eye diseases like retinoblastoma and melanoma. Despite 74% of young people owning sunglasses, only half wear them regularly. Ophthalmologists recommend making UV-resistant sunglasses a part of school uniforms.

Polarized and photochromic lenses may not offer UV protection, so check for UV protection information before purchasing.
