eye surgeons

If you need to read or if you need your glasses all the time you can purchase prescription glasses with ample sun protection at a much higher cost. Once you have Lasik surgery this cost can be greatly decreased when you purchase sunglasses.Your lenses should be gray, green or brown and the larger the lenses the better. The wrap around lens provides even better protection. You can even get contact lenses that filter out UV rays. These should not replace sunglasses altogether but they do help screen out light that comes in around your sunglasses. Also available from your eye doctor are photocromic lenses which change color when exposed to light. These lenses offer a lot of protection on an everyday level. However not all of these lenses block out 100% of UV so it is important to discuss this option with your optometrist.
