Lens Specifications: UV Protection and Style

The lenses feature a beautiful gradient tint, transitioning from a dark violet/black at the top to a lighter shade at the bottom. The specific lens style is Square/Rectangular. Crucially, these lenses offer essential UV protection (Ultraviolet protection).

What are UV Protection Lenses?

UV protection lenses are specially treated or manufactured to block or absorb the sun's damaging ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UV light includes two primary forms: UVA and UVB rays, both of which are harmful to the eyes and surrounding tissues. Lenses with full UV protection are certified to block 99% to 100% of these rays.

What is the Benefit of UV Protection Lenses?

The benefit of UV protection lenses is critical for long-term eye health and vision safety:

1. Reduces Risk of Eye Diseases: By filtering UV rays, they significantly lower the long-term risk of developing conditions like cataracts (clouding of the natural lens) and can help mitigate the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

2. Prevents Ocular Sunburn: They shield the cornea and conjunctiva from photokeratitis, a painful, temporary condition equivalent to a sunburn on the eye's surface.

3. Enhances Comfort (Gradient Benefit): The gradient tint is practical for daily wear, providing darker shading against overhead sunlight while allowing more light through the bottom portion for activities like reading or viewing a dashboard.

4. Protects Skin: The large, broad frame, combined with the UV protection, helps shield the sensitive, thin skin around the eyes from UV damage, which is key to preventing premature aging and skin cancer.
