Lens Surface Styles 

A brief guide to sunglass lens surfaces

The color and degree of darkness of a lens doesn't tell you anything about sunglasses' ability to block UV rays which can harm your eyes, according to the American Academy of Opthalmology. If you are concerned with protection look for sunglasses that block at least 99% of harmful UV rays
  • Mirrored - Thin layer of metallic applied to lens that may reduce visible light to reach eyes, but not UV rays according to the American Academy of Opthalmology.
  • Gradient - A tinted lens that is darker on the top fading to no tint on the bottom.
  • Polarized - Cuts the glare from smooth surfaces such as water, snow or pavement.
  • Photochromic - These lenses are sun-sensitive and transition from light to dark shade according to light conditions.
  • Tints - A color called neutral density gray will shade but not change your color perception.

Sunglass Styles 

Pick the style that is right for you

Sunglass trends have taken their cue from runway and street fashion. Retro looks like aviators and oversized, "Jackie O" frames along with sleek, futuristic shield shapes typical of Oakley sunglasses compliment what's going on in fashion.

In general, you should choose a pair of sunglasses in a shape that is the opposite of your face shape. For example, a rounder face can carry off geometric shapes, ovals, wraps and shields. More angular or thin faces look better in rounder frames, and oval faces look good in almost any style.
  • Aviators - Shaped like a teardrop, metal-rimmed aviators have enjoyed waves of trendiness since WWII when pilots favored this style.
  • Shields - One-piece shields have a modern look and are often partially rimmed or rimless and come in a wide range of tints.
  • Wraps - Extending past the eye to the temple, this style "wraps" around the face.
  • Clip-ons - An easy way to convert prescription eyeglasses to sunwear, clip-on shades can attach with either clips or magnets.
