Prescription Sunglasses Won't Damage Your Regular Glasses
Prescription sunglasses come in a few different forms. In addition to full sunglasses with prescription lenses, you can also get clip-on sunglasses or sunglasses that connect to your existing frames with magnets. These can be extremely convenient, especially if they're made for your specific glasses. However, it is important that they are attached correctly to prevent from falling off and scratching the frames.
Protection from Bright Light
Since bright sunlight can be dangerous and inconvenient for your eyes, it’s important to purchases glasses with UV protection. Prescription sunglasses can provide your eyes the necessary shade and protect your eyes from the glare from the sun that can be painful.
Provide Clear Vision
If you have regular prescription lenses that you wear most of the time and then you switch to non-prescription sunglasses when you're outside, you're not going to get the corrected visual acuity that you need. If you're not driving or engaging in activities that require sharper vision, regular sunglasses may be useful. However, sunglasses with a prescription can increase visual clarity anytime you are outdoors.
