As spring starts getting the foot in the door, Texans are dreaming of the sunshine. After the rainfalls & cloudy weather, the sun will come back brighter than ever. College students will sit outside under the sun as they prepare for final exams. Children will start anticipating their summer camp adventures, and families will enjoy being in the outdoors. Around this time of year, eye doctors like Dr. Young try to educate patients about UV protection.
Sunglasses & UV Protection during the rainy season?
Sunglasses are one of the most effective ways of protecting your eyes from the sun's harmful rays. Even on cloudy days, your eyes are still susceptible to UV damage. Unfortunately, few people wear them throughout the day, or during rainy days, as they don't consider the risks.
"Out of sight, out of mind." In this case, the sun is out of sight!
However, companies like Ray-Ban and Oakley, have bridged the gap between UV ray protection and amazing fashion. Fashion goers will still carry their new pair of sunglasses to protect their eyes for upcoming sunny days.
How did Ray-Ban become so popular?
Ray-Ban was founded over 80 years ago, and their glasses are still as popular as ever. Their style first connected with military, air pilots, and anybody who appreciated aviators. Fashion certainly starts with the military, right?
Today, following that same theme, Ray-ban wearers will dutifully equip their eyes with shades whether it's sunny or cloudy. Aside from the Aviator style, Ray-Ban's popular, hard plastic line called the Ray-Ban Wayfarer makes a bold impression that people love. A blend of casual and cool made their Wayfarer into a recognizable classic.
