As May approaches, it’s time to prepare for UV Awareness Month and ensure that you’re equipped to protect your eyes from the harmful effects of UV radiation. At Zenni, we believe that clear vision goes hand in hand with eye health, which is why we’re dedicated to providing stylish and protective sunglasses to keep you safe all year round.
Understanding UV Light: The Basics
UV (ultraviolet) light is a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun. While some exposure to UV light is necessary for the production of vitamin D and overall health, excessive exposure can lead to various eye conditions and vision problems.
The Importance of UV Protection for Your Eyes
Exposure to UV radiation can have serious consequences for your eye health, including cataracts, macular degeneration, and even certain types of eye cancer. Wearing sunglasses with proper UV protection is essential for shielding your eyes from harmful UV rays and reducing the risk of these conditions. Additionally, UV protection is crucial year-round, not just during the summer months, as UV radiation can penetrate clouds and cause damage even on overcast days.

At Zenni, we understand the importance of combining style with functionality when it comes to sunglasses.

Choosing the Right UV-Protective Sunglasses
When selecting sunglasses for UV protection, there are a few key factors to consider:
- UV Protection: Look for sunglasses labeled as providing 100% UV protection or UV400 protection, which blocks both UVA and UVB rays.
- Lens Material: Opt for lenses made from polycarbonate or Trivex for optimal durability and impact resistance.
- Lens Color: While lens color is largely a matter of personal preference, darker lenses can provide greater protection against bright sunlight and glare.
