Sunglasses

Sunglasses are recommended for everybody today, both adults and children alike. Eyes are susceptible to many disorders and diseases with enough exposure with ultraviolet radiation. Cataracts, pterygium and ocular cancer are such conditions the wearing of sunglasses are there to prevent.
Ideally a sunglass which exhibits a wrap around style is preferred and a style which fits reasonably closely to the face is recommended. These features will maximize the UV protection. A range of polarized spectacles are of course available for those who need extra protection from reflected glare, especially those with a love of the water sports variety.
All sunglasses available at our practice comply with the Sunglasses Standard of Australia.
Brands we stock include Oakley, Ray Ban, Maui Jim, Oroton, Bill Bass and Cancer Council to name a few.
Of course prescription sunglasses are available for those who wear prescription spectacles.

Prescription sunglasses can be fitted to both optical and sunglass frames. The sunglass lens exhibit 100% UV protection and can be tinted to range of colours and density. Polarized lenses are available in prescription sunglasses.
