Why do you need sunglasses? Here are some reasons you need to know!

First, they can protect your eyes. Because the sun's rays reaching the earth's surface contain ultraviolet light, the cornea and crystals of the human eye are the most vulnerable to ultraviolet. Due to the destruction of the ozone layer and the increase in outdoor activities in summer, the damage of ultraviolet rays to the human eyes cannot be ignored. Wearing sunglasses is a good way to protect your eyes from UV damage. If you bring sunglasses in the summer, firstly you can reduce the burden of the eye's ciliaris under strong light, letting people look at objects under natural light. And this is the most comfortable way for the human eye. Secondly wearing sunglasses is not only to block harmful light, but also to prevent dust from entering the human eyes in windy weather, which to some extent becomes the best protective umbrella for the eyes.

Second, they can make you more charming.

Sunglasses can make you look more mysterious. Most of the time we first judge people's eyes from their eyes. Covering your eyes, you will become a charming existence immediately. For humans, the eye contains a lot of information - and it is also a weakness. Contact with other people's eyes can help us judge whether a person is smart, whether it is trustworthy and whether that person is sincere, but wearing a pair of sunglasses will make us have reservations about all the judgments of this person. And this effect is two-way, because people wearing sunglasses will feel even more incredible.

Did you ever feel confused when pick sunglasses? If you say yes, read the following is the better choice!

How to Choose Lenses Color of Sunglasses?

1. Gray is a very good general color, which minimizes color distortion while reducing brightness. Gray lenses provide dazzle protection, making them ideal for driving and general use.

2. Yellow and orange lenses reduce blue light while allowing more spectrums of light to pass through the lens. Because blue light can bounce and disperse a lot of light, it can produce a dazzle effect. In fact, yellow eliminates the blue portion of the spectrum, making all objects appear bright and clear. This is why the snow-proof sunglasses are generally yellow. This type of color makes the color perception a bit distorted, so sunglasses of this color are not suitable for activities that require accurate color recognition.

3. Amber and brown are also very good general colors. They reduce dazzle effects. In addition to UV, their unique molecules can absorb higher frequency colors, such as blue. Studies have shown that long-term exposure to near-ultraviolet light (such as blue and purple) is one of the pathogenic factors of cataract.

4. The green lens can filter out some of the blue light and reduce the dazzle effect. Among all color lenses, green lenses offer the highest contrast and maximum sharpness, so they are popular. While absorbing light, these green lenses maximize the green light that reaches eyes, so they can help you feel cool and comfortable, and are suitable for people whose eyes are prone to fatigue.

5. Purple and rose lenses provide the best object contrast on a green or blue background. Therefore they are a good choice for hunting and water skiing.

6. Blue Lenses can effectively filter out the blue light of the sea and sky reflections. They will be your best choice if you gonna play on the beach. Blue lenses should be avoided when driving, as it will make us unable to distinguish the color of traffic signals.

Tips about Sunglasses

1. Sunglasses can block ultraviolet rays because a special coating film is added to the lens. Inferior sunglasses can not block the ultraviolet rays. In addition, inferior sunglasses can also reduce the lens transmittance, so that the pupils become larger and the ultraviolet rays will be injected in large quantities. Eye damage. In addition, inferior lenses can also cause nausea, forgetfulness, insomnia and other visual fatigue symptoms.

2. Gray or silver is the better choice as the color of sunglasses lens, followed by green, amber, blue, etc. The red is only used as a sunbath or snow.

3. If your eyes can be seen very clearly after wearing sunglasses, your lens color is too light.

4. When the sun goes down, you’d better remove the sunglasses because our vision will be affected in weak light condition.

5. Pay attention to the surface condition of the lens when selecting.

Why Choose Photochromic Lenses?

What is Photochromic Lenses?

   Photochromic lenses are made by photochromic glass. The color of lenses will be changed under the irradiation of light, and their original color restored when the light source is removed. 

     Photochromic lenses are made by adding a photochromic material to the glass raw material. This material has two different molecular or electronic structural states. There are two different absorption coefficients in the visible region. Under the action of light, it can change from one structure to another, resulting in reversible changes in color.

    When photochromic lenses are irradiated with ultraviolet light and short-wave visible light in sunlight, their color becomes darker and the light transmittance is lowered. Light transmittance of the lens will be improved indoors or in the dark and the color of the lenses will be recovered. The photochromism of the lens is automatic and reversible.

What choose photochromic lenses?

Photochromic lenses can adjust the transmittance through the discoloration of the lens so that the human eye can adapt to changes in the ambient light. That will help us reduce visual fatigue and protect the eyes.

 Also, it really helps when we forget to take sunglasses if we stay outside in a sunny day!

How to Choose Reading Glasses and Readers?

1.What is reading glasses?

Reading glasses come in two main styles: Full frames & "Half-eye frames".

Full reading glasses are suitable for people who spend a great deal of time concentrating on material close-up. These give you a larger field of view for reading, but if you try to look up and across the room through them, everything appears blurry.

In contrast, "half-eye" reading glasses allow you to look down and through the lenses for near work, and up and over them to see in the distance.

Generally, people who have never needed glasses in the past will start out with a pair of reading glasses rather than progressive lenses or bifocals, which are usually a better choice if you have a need for distance as well as near correction.

Reading glasses are available in lots of fun styles and colors, too, so you can experiment with fashion, purchasing a somewhat outrageous pair of glasses without risking a lot of money.

2.What is the Readers?

The readers are kinds of reading glasses. Rather than specific prescription required by customized reading glasses, the readers only need you to fill in your Strength.

For example, after you choose a frame on Vooglam and want to select lens, just click the button:

Then choose Reading Glasses:

If you want to have a pair of customized reading glasses, just click USE MY PRESCRIPTION, and fill in the prescription information as reminded:

And if you only need the Readers, just click this button:

Then fill in your strength and reach the next stage of Choosing Lens Thickness.

Reading glasses are typically for those with presbyopia, the age-related eye condition that causes the eye’s lens to become more rigid over the years, decreasing a person’s near vision. This type of glasses is convex (curved outward) in shape, which causes near objects to look clearer. Non-prescription reading glasses are widely available over the counter but have generic strengths, requiring people to find their optimal correction by trial and error. In addition, these “ready-made” readers typically have the same corrective strength in both lenses and do not account for the astigmatism that many people have. As a result, people often choose to receive prescription reading eyeglasses to get a more accurate vision correction and frame fit.
