all at incredibly low prices. You can choose any frame from any of our selections and just add the 'Dark tint' (sunglass) option and create your own unique pair of sunglasses. Visit our 'Help and Advice' page for more useful information about the benefits of wearing and ordering sunglasses. RE-USE YOUR OWN FRAMES Useful information about the benefits of wearing and ordering sunglasses · Creating your own unique pair of sunglasses To create your own unique pair of sunglasses, instead of going to our Sunglasses range, click on any of our other frame types and find a frame you like. Decide whether you require single or bi-focal lenses and enter all your prescription details as you would when ordering any pair of spectacles from our site. Then, from the Tint or Photo chromatic drop down box choose 'Dark brown' or 'Dark Grey' - these tints are the same depth of tint that are used in most sunglasses - equivalent to the tints in our sunglasses range. Photochromatic and Polorized tints are also available. · Why you should keep a pair of sunglasses in your car. Driving in low winter sun conditions, bright summer sunshine glare from the road surface, especially when wet, after a summer shower. We all know how blinding this can be, so never be without a pair of sunglasses to hand whilst driving. Wearing sunglasses will reduce stress whilst driving by minimising disabling glare and distracting reflection from well worn tarmac, also providing minimal peripheral distraction, helping to judge bends and the road ahead perfectly. · UV rays and your eyes Extended exposure to the sun's UV rays has been linked to eye damage, including cataracts, macular degeneration. Over exposure to UVB rays can cause photokeratitis, commonly known as 'snow blindness' which causes temporary vision loss for up to 48 hours - the risk for this condition is greater at high altitudes due to the increased levels of UVB, but can occur anywhere there is snow. You must therefore ensure that the sunglasses you use in such conditions have adequate UVB protection, in the same way as you should ensure you are using an adequate sunblocking cream for your skin. Surprisingly, cloud cover doesn't affect UV levels significantly. Your risk of UV exposure can be quite high even on hazy or overcast days.

· Fishing

with polarized lenses.

Polarized

sunglasses take the glare off the water surface allowing you to see below the water line. SEE THE FISH BEFORE THEY ARE HOOKED. Fishing sunglasses also protect and rest your eyes from the extra ultraviolet radiation that’s reflected off the water surface, making your eyes Understanding Your Spectacles Prescription A prescription is normally written out like this: R. -2.00/ -1.75 X 155 The first figure that you will see on a prescription is the SPHERE power (abbreviated Sph). This is the main power of the prescription the preceding sign is very important, when it is a minus sign it represents a correction for myopia (shortsighted) e.g. -2.00, and when it is a positive sign it represent a correction for hypermetropia (longsighted) e.g. +1.00. Sometimes the prescription may be written with a DS after the Sphere power e.g.: +1.00DS. The "DS" signifies Dioptres Sphere, which is the unit of measurement for spectacle power. More often than not the DS sign is not written. The next figure you see is the CYLINDER power (abbreviated cyl). This represents the astigmatism in your prescription. Often this figure is shown like this -1.75cyl. The astigmatic power is always along a certain angle (axis) from 0 to 180 degrees, e.g. -1.75 x175. Sometimes the sphere and cylinder powers can be separated by a slash The R. signifies the right eye. (L. for the left). The right eye is always given first. e.g. Rt +2.75 / -3.50 x 125 L. +3.00 -2.00 X 55 R. +2.50/ -1.00 x 180 L. +3.25 / -1.25 x 10 This prescription indicates that you are hypermetropic (longsighted), plus have a small amount of astigmatism. Reading prescription. If single vision spectacles are required ie for distance or reading only, the prescription will be written as the above examples. Sometimes the prescription will be written with an ADD power after it e.g: R +2.50/-1.00 x 55 L +2.00/ -2.00 x 35 ADD +2.50 In particular if you are aged 45 or over. This indicates that you are presbyopic and need an additional power to help you read. You can have presbyopia in addition to any of the prescriptions above, or you may have only presbyopia and perfect distance vision. In the previous example, to obtain the Reading part of the prescription you add +2.50 to the sphere power ie +5.00/ -1.00 x 55 L +4.50/-2.00 x 35 When ordering bifocals or multifocals the distance vision power correction is given with an add power e.g. R -1.00/-1.25 x 55 ADD +2.00 L -1.50/-1.50x165 ADD +2.00 If you wanted just the reading power from the above prescription, again you just add the +2.00 to the Sphere power. In this example it would be: R (-1.00 add+2.00 = +1.00) Right +1.00 / -1.25 x 55 L (-1.50 add +2.00 = +0.50) Left would read +0.50 / -1.50 x165 The complete reading prescription would read: R +1.00 / -1.25 x 55 L +0.50 / -1.50 x 165. WHEN ORDERING GLASSES PLEASE BE CAREFUL IN ENTERING THE CORRECT SIGN ie +(plus) OR (minus). PLEASE NOTE: THE PRESCRIPTION FOR CONTACT LENSES IS OFTEN DIFFERENT TO YOUR
