Cheap Sunglasses

Did you know Cheap Sunglasses actually cost you more in the long-run? And no, I'm not just talking about your wallet/pocketbook.


Jeff Tyson wrote a great article on HowStuffWorks.com entitled "How Sunglasses Work". In it he explains the four things a GOOD pair of sunglasses should do for you:
  1. Sunglasses provide protection from ultraviolet rays in sunlight
  2. Sunglasses provide protection from intense light
  3. Sunglasses provide protection from glare
  4. Sunglasses eliminate specific frequencies of light
Jeff states that "when you buy a cheap pair of sunglasses, you often give up all of those benefits and can even make things worse." Check out the rest of this article, and when you're ready, stop by one of our locations in Atlanta or purchase a good, quality pair of sunglasses online from SunglassWarehouse.net. Your eyes will thank you!

Raise your hand if you have the winter blues?


Don't worry. You're not alone. The good news is that Spring is just around the corner, which means more time spent outdoors and SUNSHINE. More time in the sun means you will want to protect your eyes from those pesky UV rays in style.

Below are 5 questions to consider when selecting the right sunglasses for Y-O-U:

  1. Will I be wearing my sunglasses for fashion or function?
  2. Do they need to stay firmly on my head during wear?
  3. What color frames am I looking for?
  4. Will the lenses need to be prescription?
  5. What is my budget for purchasing new sunglasses?

Once you have the answers to the above questions, you will be able to narrow your search significantly and find the pair of sunglasses that works best for you.
