Having a good pair of sunglasses is important to keep your eyes safe from UV rays. Constant squinting damages vision and can even have long term effects. Children and adults should always wear sunglasses when outdoors in sunny weather. But sunglasses can become scratched or otherwise damaged if not taken care of properly. Whether your sunglasses are prescription or non-prescription, or you wear them simply for the look, keeping your shades in good condition ensures they will last longer. Below are a few tips on how to properly take care of your sunglasses in order to get the most use out of them.

Clean your sunglasses often. Just about any place that sell sunglasses will give you a complimentary lens cleaning wipe or even glass cleaner when you purchase sunglasses. Keep these around with you at all times and clean your sunglasses often. If you have an empty bottle of lens cleaner, put Windex in it. This often works much better than the stuff they give you at the store. Make sure the wipe is always clean, as any residue may leave a film on your lenses.

To wash your sunglasses, just rinse them under warm tap water with a little liquid soap, and dry them with the wipe. Never use a sponge on your sunglasses as this will cause scratches.

When you’re not wearing your sunglasses, always keep them in a protective case. Some stores will give you a complimentary case when you purchase sunglasses, or you can get them at an optical shop or any store that sells sunglasses. Keep your shades in the case with your cleaning cloth.

If you notice any damage on your sunglasses, such as a loose screw, have them checked at an optical store. They may be able to fix it for you free of charge, or for a very small fee. You may also be able to fix them yourself with a small screw.

If you’re wearing your sunglasses while you’re sweating, remove them often and wipe the sweat from around the entire frame. The acid in the sweat and the oils from the perspiration can damage the frames and the coating on the lenses.

Don’t leave your sunglasses laying outdoors for long periods of time, such as on the dashboard of you car. Similar to sweat and perspiration, the heat can also damage the lenses and can cause the frames to become rusty.

Wholesale sunglasses are much cheaper than in boutiques or opticians. Keep a pair in your car, in your office and at home, split the cost with a friend, or buy a bunch and give them out as gifts during the holidays.

If you are an eyeglasses wearer I’m sure you have wondered if you should have more than one pair of eyeglasses. In a world that has and continues to be ever changing the need for more than one pair of eyeglasses has become inevitable for many reasons.

The first reason a second pair of eyeglasses is or may be need is for the purpose of sun protection. As our eyes are exposed to the rays of the sun we can experience extreme glare. This can impair our ability to see well especially while driving. The ultra violet rays of the sun can cause damage and the onset of early cataracts. From children to adults sun protection should be a utilized, especially if you are a prescription eyeglass wearer.

The second reason you should own a second pair of eyeglasses is in case of loss or breakage. Depending on the amount of prescription you are wearing the most common cause for panic is the loss or breakage of a person’s only pair of prescription eyeglasses. Some people become virtually blind without their eyeglass correction. Contact lens wearers should always have a pair of current eyeglasses available. Should they have an infection or condition that does not allow them to wear their contact lenses for several days or weeks, they need a pair they like. The mistake a contact lenses wearer makes I either not having a spare pair of eyeglasses or having a pair they do not want to wear in public.

The third reason that a secondary pair of eye glasses may be needed is for computer use. Although a progressive pair of eyeglass lenses provides the intermediate, the area may not be wide enough for long term computer use. Some people may prefer to have a pair of bifocals made with just the intermediate and the near prescription. Some people may want a single vision pair of eyeglasses made for just the intermediate or computer distance. Either way, computer use becomes easier.

The fourth reason an additional pair of eyeglasses may be needed is in the case of a person who only needs reading glasses. Most of the time the reading glasses are never in the place you need them. So more than one pair of reading glasses may be necessary for various parts of the house, office, and/or vehicle to make sure at least one pair is available when needed.

You are treading dangerous waters if you have a fairly powerful prescription and only one pair of eyeglasses. If you are driving or operation equipment, another life may in danger, including your own. Some will say that eyeglasses are too expensive but how much value do you place on the gift of seeing or the life you are not seeing. Sight is well worth the investment.
