Not all but fewer of the sunglasses like over-sized sunglasses protect your eyes from sun damage and also cover your eyes wrinkle.

It's hard to find sunglasses that don't have at least some protection from the harmful rays of the sun. Not all are rated and there are varying levels of protection. You want something with at least 100% UVA/UVB protection. The more exotic ones filter other types of light too.

They do make sunglasses that better cover the area surrounding your eyes. They are known as fit-over glasses, and are designed exactly like they are named, to fit over your existing glasses, usually prescription. They can be used standalone too. The downside is most fit over glasses are ugly. Usually the better coverage, the uglier.

Your best bet is to wear sunscreen on the surrounding areas.



No, not all sunglasses have UVA/UVB protection. But, it is becoming more and more of an important topic for sellers so more stores are selling them. Place like Wal-Mart and Target, you can find UVA/UVB sunglasses for 10 bucks (American) or you can go to Sunglass Hut and all of their sunglasses are UVA/UVB protection. Sunglass Hut prides themselves in that. Or, just go to your local Optometrist and look at their optical.

Also, you can get regular clear lenses that have UVA/UVB protection, it is not just sunglasses. And some contacts have UVA/UVB protection too

though there are sunglasses that are made to protect the skin area around our eyes, it is not that effective for sun isn't the only factor that contributes in having wrinkles. there are several factors such as unhealthy living, constant frowning and even stress and a lot more. the best way for you to protect your skin (especially the skin around the eyes) is for you to develop healthy way of living.. you can also use creams for under eye wrinkles to further prevent and at the same time treat the wrinkles as well. I recommend you check this link for more information as well as the products that you can use to prevent the wrinkles. http://www.narhexmax.com.au/anti-wrinkle… ..
