Lenses for Your Black Prescription Sunglasses
Choosing the right lenses for your black prescription sunglasses is important to enhance your vision and protect your eyes.
UV Protection: The primary purpose of sunglasses is to protect your eyes from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Your lenses should provide 100% UV protection. Protecting your eyes from the sun reduces your risk of cataracts, macular degeneration, and eye and skin cancers.
Lens Material: Consider your lifestyle and prescription values when selecting a lens material. Your sunglasses can be made from several lens materials. Polycarbonate lenses are lightweight, impact-resistant, and an excellent choice for active individuals. High-index lenses are thinner, lighter, and more aesthetically appealing for those with high prescriptions.
Lens Type: Black prescription sunglasses can be ordered in any lens type: single vision, lined-bifocal, no-line bifocal and progressive lenses. Whether you are myopic, hyperopic, or have astigmatism, a pair of black sunglasses is available for your prescription.
Tint and Coating: Black prescription sunglasses are available with many tint options. Gray, brown, or green tints are popular choices because they provide natural color perception and reduce glare. Each color tint works well with a black sunglass frame.
Polarized Lenses: Polarized lenses reduce glare from surfaces like water, roads, and glass. They enhance clarity, visual comfort, and color contrast for activities like fishing, skiing, and golf. Polarized lenses are available in dark gray for bright, sunny conditions. Brown polarized lenses improve contrast and color on semi-cloudy days, and green lenses are great for overall improvement in contrast and color.
Mirror Coatings: Mirror coatings can be a stylish addition to your black prescription sunglasses. These reflective coatings improve privacy, reduce glare and heat, and offer a unique look. Mirror coatings are available to order in Silver, Gold and Blue.
The perfect frame shapes for Black Prescription Sunglasses
Black sunglasses can be timeless, elegant, and versatile and are popular with those who desire to be fashionable and have UV protection. The perfect frame shape for your black prescription sunglasses depends on your personal style, face shape, and fit. Here are a few of the most popular shapes for black prescription sunglasses.
Wayfarer: A classic wayfarer is always a favorite for black prescription sunglasses. Its bold and square design is both retro and modern. It also offers adequate coverage to protect your eyes from the sun’s UV rays. Wayfarers work for a wide range of face shapes and are a great choice for both men and women.
Aviator: Aviator frames are another iconic option for black prescription sunglasses. They are known for their teardrop-shaped lenses and thin metal frames. Aviators are cool yet functional. They provide a wide-field of view. The aviator is a universal style for many face shapes, including oval, round, and heart-shaped faces.
Round: Round frames are a popular vintage style for black prescription sunglasses. Round frames work well for square and angled faces to soften their features and create balance. The round design can be classic yet artsy. It’s a unique shape you are sure to receive compliments on.
Square: A black, square frame is chic and modern yet edgy. Square frames have strong lines and bold angles and are a confident fashion choice. By providing definition and balance, they may be best for those with a round or oval face.
Cat-Eye:A Cat-eye frame is a feminine, girly choice for those who desire retro glamor. Cat-eye frames are swept up at the outer corners, creating a flattering lift to the eyes and face. Cat-eye black prescription sunglasses are ideal for heart-shaped or angular faces. Cat-eye frames are elegant, dramatic, and stylish. They enhance the female face.
Rectangular: Rectangular frames provide balance and definition to a face. They are best for individuals with round or oval faces because they appear to elongate the face and create a slimming effect. Black rectangular frames can be a sophisticated, bold choice, but perfect for a polished and professional look.
