Protect Your Vision with Sunglasses
Glasses can not only help you see more clearly; they also help protect your eyes from ultraviolet rays, work hazards, and injury during sports. These injuries are common:
- 20,000 workplace eye injuries every year
- 40,000 adults and children suffer eye injuries during sports every year
- 90% of sporting and workplace eye injuries could be avoided if workers wore certified eye protection or sports glasses
