Sunglasses

Sunglasses are a form of protective eyewear designed primarily to prevent bright sunlight and high-energy visible light from damaging or discomforting the eyes. They can sometimes also function as a visual aid, as variously termed spectacles or glasses exist, featuring lenses that are colored, polarized or darkened. In the early 20th century they were also known as sun cheaters (cheaters being an American slang term for glasses).
Many people find direct sunlight too bright for comfort during outdoor activities. Healthcare professionals recommend eye protection whenever the sun comes out to protect the eyes from ultraviolet radiation (UV) and blue light, which can cause several serious eye problems. Sunglasses have long been associated with celebrities and film actors primarily from a desire to mask their identity. Since the 1940s sunglasses have been popular as a fashion accessory, especially on the beach.

UV Protection
UVB rays burn your skin and can cause damage to your eyes. In addition, some research suggests that UVB exposure can cause serious eye conditions, like cataracts (see also: eye anatomy).

Polarized Lenses
Polarized lenses reduce glare, making them great for use around lakes and oceans, which can make polarized sunglasses handy for boaters and fishermen. These lenses are also handy for a wide variety of sports,like cricket, skiing, golf etc . Polarized lenses reduce glare from light reflecting off any reflective surfaces such as water, snow, rocks any polished surfaces etc. these lenses provide immense driving cofort.

Mirror Lenses
Mirrored lenses reduce the amount of light that reaches your eyes, so they can provide extra comfort in strong glare conditions. Mirrors can be semi-opaque or opaque from the front, so other people can see your eyes a little, or not at all.

Photochromic Lenses
For those who need prescription sunglasses to correct their myopia, hyperopia and/or astigmatism, these lenses darken when you go outside and lighten when you go inside. What does this mean for you? No need to keep a pair of prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses on you at all times.

Gradient Lenses
These usually range from fairly dark at the top of the lens to a clear bottom, but they're also available in different gradations. Gradient lenses that are clear or light on the bottom make it easy to see the dash when you're driving, but are usually not effective enough if anything below your line of vision will be reflecting light up at you.
