Sunglasses:
From a timeless aviator look
to the sophistication of new
designer styles, sunglasses
are as common in outdoor
settings as seashells on a
beach. These days, the
debate among sunglass
wearers focuses on
protection versus style. As
much as sunglasses make a
fashion statement, they also
serve as an important device
to protect your eye's health
from damaging UV rays.

Plano sunglasses:
You can find
non-prescription sunwear
in a variety of frame
materials, including
plastic and metals such
as titanium, aluminum,
and stainless steel.
Popular options include
polarized lenses for
driving and fishing or
mirror coatings. Clip-on
sunglasses that can be
bought at the same time
as your regular
eyeglasses are designed
for an exact match.
Magnetic attachments
also have greatly
increased the popularity
of clip-on sunglasses.
When buying plano
sunglasses, make sure
they're optically ground
and absorb 100 percent
of harmful UV rays if
you want the best vision
and eye protection.

Designer sunglasses:
These styles, often
branded with popular
names such as Armani,
are generally sold in
high end boutiques or
department stores and
tend to mimic current
fashion trends.

Prescription
sunglasses: Ideal
for prescription
eyeglass wearers, these
eliminate the need for
sun clips. Recently,
prescription sunglasses
have become more
available in the retail
marketplace.

Kids' sunglasses:
Youngsters can achieve a
trendy grown-up look in
sunglasses or go for
more whimsical styles,
such as brightly
colored, cat-eye shapes.
