The Role of UV Protection in Eyewear
1. UV400 Protection:
UV400 lenses block all light rays with wavelengths up to 400 nanometers, which covers all UVA and UVB rays, offering complete protection.
2. Preventing Eye Diseases:
Prolonged UV exposure can contribute to cataracts and macular degeneration. UV protective lenses are essential in preventing these conditions.

UV protection is not just for sunny days. Harmful UV rays can penetrate clouds, making protection essential year-round.
