On wintery days like today, wrap up your coat and your eyes. . Sunglasses are great in shading your eyes against weather elements other than the sun, such as wind. Wind impacts the moisture and tear glands of the eye, causing dry eye. Severe drying of the Corneal surface can even lead to a condition called ‘snow blindness’.
So when you add on an extra fleece, scarf and gloves, don’t forget to to cover your eyes. Anne wears prescription Rayban sunglasses with polarised lens...es.

Niamh makes sunglasses look good, even on a rainy day. Sunglasses are not just for sunny days. They are ideal in winter when the sun sits lower in the sky and can make driving hazardous. If you are a driver, consider a pair of prescription or polarised lenses to help improve your driving vision.

The perfect winter accessory for that low winter sun. A polarised sun clip. Do you know about polarised lenses?
Polarised lenses do what no other lens or lens treatment can - block blinding glare.(due to their ability to block horizontal light waves)
Polarised lenses enhance visual acuity, colour contrast and visual comfort, and block 100% of harmful UVA and UVB light.
... Fishermen will always wear polarised lenses. The lens enables them to see below the glarey surface of the water.
They are also ideal for all drivers as glare impacts sunny, wet and even snowy road surfaces. Why not call in the next time you are passing and try on a polarised lens to see it’s visual benefits. #seeingisbelieving
