What is UV400 protection, and why is it important?
UV400 protection:
-
Blocks both UVA and UVB rays
-
Reduces risk of cataracts and long-term eye damage
-
Prevents eye strain caused by sun exposure
Without proper protection, tinted lenses can dilate pupils and increase UV exposure — making quality UV protection essential.
