3 Big Mistakes To Avoid When Buying Sunglasses

Posted by Danielwalters.com on 25th Apr 2017

Buying eyeglasses is a process that most people zoom through and don't take the time to consider what they really want out of their sunglasses. A lot of time this results in people not being completely satisfied with their purchase and being left wanting more. This is because of common mistakes most of the time which can be easily avoided if you are aware of them and follow some simple guidelines.  To help you make this process easier we have compiled them into a list down below so that you can buy your next pair of sunglasses worry free!



1. Choosing The Wrong Sunglasses For Your Lifestyle

This is probably the most common mistake that people make when they are buying sunglasses. Different lenses will suit different lifestyles because of specialized coatings and other cool features that have become popular in the last couple of years. If you do a lot of driving you will need a different type of lenses than if you work outside the majority of the day. It's just like shoes, if you dance for the majority of your day you aren't going to wear tennis shoes and if you run or walk a lot you aren't going to want to buy dress shoes. Buying frames to fit your lifestyle is the best way to ensure that you won't be disappointed.

2. Getting Sunglasses That Don't Cover Enough Of Your Eyes

Sunglasses aren't only there to protect your eyes but also the area around your eyes. This allows a lot less light to get in and cuts down on squinting by a lot and reduces sun hitting those areas which both reduce signs of premature aging. The eyelids are very sensitive which can make them more prone to skin cancer so it is extra important to get a pair of sunglasses that is going to protect that area.

3. Your Buying Your Eyeglasses Too Dark

A very common mistake that a lot of people make when buying sunglasses is that they buy them much darker than they need to be. This is because most people think that the darker they are the more protection but this is not true at all. The dark frames could actually hurt your eyes by causing you to strain them to try and see through the dimness. The best thing to do instead is to find a pair of sunglasses with a protective coating.
