National Sunglasses Day is a commemorative date held annually on June 27 celebrating the importance of wearing sunglasses to protect the eyes from the sun's harsh ultraviolet (UV) rays.
Research has shown that people who do not wear sunglasses risk doing substantial damage to their eyes due to the harmful effects of the sun’s rays. Even on cloudy days, sunlight can still be strong enough to cause lasting damage to the eyes, which means that it is important to wear sunglasses or another form of UV eye protection at all times.
All sunglasses from Oliver Goldsmith come fitted with optical grade lenses with UVA and UVB protection as standard.
Wear your favorite sunglasses and protect those beautiful eyes.
