What Do You Need to Know When Buying Sunglasses for Children?
1. The spectacle frame should not have sharp edges and should not be easy to damage, otherwise your child may hurt himself when playing.
2. Choose high-quality spectacle lenses. For safety reasons, children's sunglasses should use shatterproof resin lenses and UV400. For adults and children, wearing sunglasses can cause dilation of the pupils of the eyes. If sunglasses do not provide proper UV protection, dangerous UV rays can penetrate unimpeded and in some cases cause permanent injury.
3. Choose Sunglasses suitable for children's face. Children are not yet able to judge for themselves whether their glasses are intact and fit, or whether they are too tight or uncomfortable. You should use the optometrist's experience to help you make your choice. Experts are sure to make the most suitable Sunglasses according to the child's face shape.
4. Children with amblyopia should not wear sunglasses.
Sunglasses are not suitable for babies who are too young. Their nose and ears have not developed enough to wear glasses. The best protection for babies is a wide brimmed hat or keep them in the shade. Children should have their own suitable sunglasses at the latest when they start preschool.
