Eye Safety and protection is as important as sunblock when it comes to your kids

You provide sun protection for your child's skin so it makes sense to provide protection for his eyes as well.

What's wrong with this picture?

How often do you see families out in the sun, the grown-ups wearing sunglasses while the kids are squinting, blinded by the light?

Just seeing in bright sunshine is difficult without shades, and the fact is that kids' eyes are more susceptible to sun damage than adults' eyes. The American Academy of Ophthalmology says, "Like your skin, your eyes never recover from UV exposure," and, driving home the point, "exposure to bright sunlight increases the risk of developing cataracts, macular degeneration, and growths on the eye, including malignancies."

Yikes. That's not good. Luckily, there is a simple and attractive solution to the problem.
