Glasses to fight sun and glare…
by admin on Jun.12, 2011, under Travel Shopping
Nothing can be more headache-inducing than heat and glare. Spending a day at a sunny beach or checking out the scenery of a snowy mountain, these glasses help cut glare while enhancing clarity of whatever you are viewing…Summer hasn’t even officially begun – more glare on the way…
The Complete Protection Clarity Enhancing Sunglasses are the multi-coated sunglasses that provide a dozen protective and vision enhancing benefits. Triple filter polarization–developed from NASA optic technology–blocks 99.9% of harmful UVA and UVB rays, as well as damaging blue and violet wavelengths and enhances contrast for hawk-like clarity. An optical-grade anti-reflective coating cuts distracting glare. Scratch- and crack-resistant coatings protect each side.
Over 40 eyes? Not to worry…
Unlike traditional sunglasses that darken your vision, these Clarity Enhancing Bifocal Sunglasses use optics technology developed by NASA to make objects appear more vivid while blocking 100% of UV rays and shading eyes from sunlight. Based on the glasses designed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory to protect astronauts’ eyes from solar radiation, the polarized lenses filter blue and violet light rays that can impair vision, yet allow sight-enhancing green, yellow, orange, and red light rays to reach your retina.
Have a Dad who plays a lot of tennis? These might also make a great gift!
The Tennis Ball Sunglasses make tennis balls easier to see-and thus easier to return–even when served at professional speeds. The dark teal lenses mute all colors but “optic yellow,” ensuring that the most vivid thing its wearer sees is the hurtling tennis ball.
Designed by Bolle, a 112-year-old French company that is official supplier of sunglasses to the U.S. Professional Tennis Association, the lenses on this pair meet ANSI standards for UV protection and employ a metallic silver mirror to cut glare.

Thanks for the post. Just a reminder that as you know, skin cancer rates are on the rise so you may want to pick up a rashguard shirt to give you SPF 150 protection while you’re in the water.
