The Best Sport Sunglasses For Summer

The best sport sunglasses provide complete eye protection. Tiny sunglasses may be in vogue, but they’re very impractical in terms of UV protection. Even celebrities like Mindy Kaling have renounced the tiny sunglasses trend by tweeting “I think we will regret this tiny sunglasses look”. In truth, those lenses the size of grapes won’t protect against UV rays anyway.

The fact is, if you do anything outside during daylight hours, you should be wearing sports sunglasses. Ideal sport sunglasses wrap around the eyes and act as a protective shield guarding your eyes against dust, wind, flying objects, and ultraviolet radiation. The health risk of long term UV light exposure can have a lasting effect on our eyes which is why it’s important to purchase sunglasses that offer 100% UV protection. So what kind of sport sunglasses should you be shopping for?
