About
Sunglasses
We love the sun.
If you love the sun like we do, you know how a bright sunny day can affect your eyesight. Eyes, like skin, are vulnerable to sunburn, and a day in the sun without proper eye protection can leave you with stinging, red, dry eyes. The irritation usually resolves within a few days, but many years later the accumulation of sun damage can cloud your vision, or even result in irreversible disorders.
The good news is there are many options to protect your eyes even if you use prescription eyewear. Ultraviolet (UV) light consists of UVA, UVB, and UVC rays. UVC rays are stopped in Earth's atmosphere, but UVA and UVB reach the eyes and can potentially damage them with long term exposure.
Sunglasses & The Vault at our Wellington clinic
Our Wellington clinic is home to The Vault — a curated, luxury sunglasses and eyewear experience in the heart of Hintonburg. Whether you're after a statement designer pair or prescription sunglasses with full UV protection, our stylists will help you find them, six days a week including Saturdays.
Choose the right fit and style for your lifestyle.
If you use prescription eyewear, here are some popular options to protect your eyes:
- Order a pair of prescription shades or glasses that darken when exposed to bright light
- A prescription pair of UV-blocking contact lenses
- UV-blocking contact lenses worn with non-prescription sunglasses for optimal protection
- Non-prescription clip-ons or wraparound glasses that fit over your lenses
