Pros: Comfortable, Optimal clarity

I have had mine for 2 years now. They are customized with the polished frame and prescription polarized ice iridium lenses. I would recommend them to anyone. I have a giant head and they are super snug. After two years the nose joints are very loose. I need to send them in, but can't live without them long enough to bring myself to send them in. I recommend polarized ice iridium to anyone for any pair of oaks. The clarity is absolutely amazing.... NOTHING touches it.

5 Eye Care Tips for Active Adults

Eyecare For Adults

Dr. Larry Lampert, a Sports Vision Specialist has these 5 tips for active adults:

* Visit your eyecare professional regularly to receive a complete examination and keep your eyes in top performing shape.

* Consider photochromic, shatterproof lenses, such as Transitions.

* Even when the weather is cloudy or cold, the sun's rays are always present. Always wear your protective eyewear outdoors to reduce glare and block UV rays year-round.

* Drink eight to ten glasses of water a day to hydrate the body and eyes.

* Maintain an "eye healthy" and balanced diet high in beta-carotene found in foods such as carrots, sweet potatoes and leafy green vegetables.

Ninety percent of sports-related eye injuries could have been prevented by taking proper precautions including protective eyewear, The Vision Council says. Protective eyewear can includes lenses made from polycarbonate material, a type of plastic that is impact-resistant.

So, if you're out there and running around having fun or getting in shape, remember your eyes need to be protected. Take the time and make the effort to get some decent protective eyewear and you'll be able to enjoy being active without risking the health of your eyes.

Best UV Protection-Cheap Sunglasses Versus Brands

A new study shows that name brand sunglasses will give your eyes the best protection. A Roanoke VA news website did a study of really cheap ($1.00) sunglasses and popular name brand sunglasses.

The name brands came out on top almost everytime but surprisingly, there was a dollar pair that gave pretty good UV protection-no light was let in! For a buck! Not bad Dollar Tree and 99 Cent Store!

The Optician they interviewed promotes Polarized sunglasses as the overall best for filtering glare and absorbing most U-V-A and U-V-B light.

So the next time you forget your sunglasses and run into the discount store to buy some cheap shades-chances are they're not going to block many damaging rays. So buy one of their cheap hats too!

Choose Sunglasses-What's Right For You

Not an easy thing to do-choosing new glasses.

You've got to take a little time and think about what's right for you.  You can get dazzled by all the hot and Glam styles featured on online eyewear stores. There are thousands of eyeglass styles (frames/lenses) to choose from!

Ask Yourself These Questions Before Purchasing:

• Do I need Prescription or Non-Prescription?
• What's my Face Shape?
• I always look best in (name your color)
• Which Style are you interested in right now?
• Designer or Fashion glasses-check your budget again
• Where should I buy-street stores or online?

Purpose and Style

Where you'll be wearing your new glasses will help determine what to buy. If they're for casual purposes, you can have fun experimenting with new and Glam styles. But, if you'll be wearing these new ones to the office or in a  formal business setting it's best to choose lenses and frames that give you that polished professional look.

As for Sunglasses-prescription, casual, glam and sporty are your choices. You'll be wearing these in the elements, so try to get the best lenses you can afford. It always pays to buy high quality glasses that offer scratch resistance and full protection from the sun's rays.

Facial Profiling!

Your "Face Shape" will decide for you which type of lenses and frames to buy. People generally try to compensate for shape imperfections with frames that hide or distract from those weaknnesses.

Example:  long thin square-jawed type faces will look better by softening with roundish types of lenses and frames.

Example:  rounded faces take on a more flattering and interesting look with broader and wider shaped glasses.

Don't forget hair style and color as well as skin tone. Remember which colors make you look your best!

Consider all of the above when making that final decision to buy what, where and why.  Your carefully considered purchase will boost your confidence and give you that professional, glam or sporty look you're after.
