sunglasses

Blink Opticians have a comprehensive range of varying brands of sunglasses allowing you to look good, stay safe and see clearly in the sun. Most of us love the sun, but it’s a fact that its invisible rays can damage our eyesight. The expert team at Blink Opticians has the knowledge required to help you buy the sunglasses that will provide you with the right protection for your eyes. The right sunglasses will filter out dangerous UVB and UVA rays and allow you to see clearly.

Facts:

• Remember, even on a cloudy day 90% of UV rays can still penetrate through and harm your eyes
• The most damage from UV happens before the age of 12 so don’t forget to protect your children’s’ eyes too
• Wraparound styles are most protective as they prevent the rays bouncing back into the eye from the sides
• Never buy sunglasses without a CE mark – it is more damaging to wear a tint without a UV coating as the pupil will dilate behind the tint and actually let more UV rays in than not wearing sunglasses at all!

Pop in store so we can advise you face-to-face on the style that best suits your face shape and lifestyle needs. All the sunglasses supplied by Blink Opticians offer 100% UV protection. We’ll help you choose the right frame, lens colour and level of tint so you can combine custom made protection with the style that is perfect for you. You can also protect your lenses with scratch-resistant coating in order to prolong their life and get better value for your money.

Prescription lenses for your sunglasses start at just £49 per pair, including frames. Bear in mind that if you want a particular pair that we don’t have in store we can quickly order them in – and you don’t even have to commit to buying them at this point!
