"Buying sunglasses on a stand or on little-known Internet sites is a bad idea that risks jeopardizing the view. Because the lenses without the necessary filters for the sun's rays are a serious danger to the eyes "

"In this way the ray exposure accelerates the cataract processes, accelerating the loss of transparency of the lens. And the macula, very delicate eye area, is damaged, thus promoting maculopathy. "

The main purpose of sunglasses is the filtering or blocking of ultraviolet and infrared radiation, affecting the eyes and reduce glare caused by sunlight in order to have a clear and comfortable vision.

And the unfiltered rays strike more and do more harm; the damage does not appear in a week, and is often late when we come to discover the disease.
