Sunglasses FAQs

What are the benefits of photochromic sunglasses?

Photochromic lenses (with or without prescription) adjust to brightness. They darken as you step outside on a sunny day and get lighter when you go indoors. This means that you can wear the same glasses everywhere without having to switch from regular glasses to sunglasses.

Are sunglass lens coatings worth it?

While sunglasses provide plenty of protection for your eyes, lens coatings add even more benefits. You can choose anti-reflective coatings to cut down on glare and make driving safer. Tinted sunglasses can help you see colors and detail more distinctly. Scratch-resistant coatings help prevent damage so you can enjoy your shades for longer.

Is it OK to wear sunglasses with contacts?

Unless your contact lenses provide 100% UV protection — most don’t — always remember to don your sunglasses before heading outdoors. Sunglasses with 100% UV protection screen out harmful rays and winds that tend to dry out your eyes more quickly. This is good news for contact lens wearers who run the risk of developing dry eye symptoms.

How to tell if sunglasses have UV protection?

To make sure that your sunglasses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, make sure to purchase your shades from a licensed optometrist.

How Do I Choose the Right Sunglasses?

To select your perfect sunglasses, consider the following:

  • Frames

    You want your sunglasses to last, so choose durable, high-quality frames. Whether you choose plastic, acetate, aluminum, stainless steel or even wooden frames, make sure that the frames fit well, look good, and are comfortable to wear.

  • Lenses

    Lenses correct your vision, protect your eyes and enhance your style. Always choose lenses that screen out 100% of UV rays. You can also choose special features like anti-glare, polarized shades or tints. To prevent damage, select durable lenses.

  • Shape

    Sunglass shapes not only express your unique style; they provide a protective barrier against the elements. Wrap-around sunglasses shield your eyes from wind and flying debris. The right frames also complement your face and help you bring your best features forward.

  • Prescription

    Once you’ve undergone an eye exam, you can purchase sunglasses with the same prescription as your regular glasses. Wearing prescription sunglasses allows you to enjoy the outdoors while protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays.

Dr. Rachel was wonderful- thoughtful, intelligent and took the time to explain. Patrick the technici... an was also great as well as the rest of the team. After my visit I came back 15 minutes later to ask a question I had forgotten and Dr Rachel and team had no problem taking the time to look into my questions without rushing. A++

It is hard for me to even describe how thankful I am for these folks. I was traveling and lost my gl... asses (which are very, very, very much needed) in a bit of a fiasco tubing in Golden. Golden Vision Clinic provided me with contacts when I was very panicked, couldn't see, and had nowhere else to go. While I don't visit this clinic for regular care, there is no question that they are incredibly helpful and kind, and in my case, life savers!!!

Spent 30 minutes calling around to find a place where I can test contacts, this was the only office ... that had a nice, friendly, and helpful person answer the phone! Turns out they offer good services as well and have done a great job helping me get what I need.

My glasses just had a little screw that had come loose, and these guys repaired it for me free of ch... arge. They also cleaned the glasses too which was nice. Overall with the little experience that I had with them, they seemed helpful and professional.

Have been seeing them ever since I moved to Golden and I have never had a better experience with a v... ision clinic. Love the employees and how easy it is to talk with them and get the education needed to feel safe and ready with any new prescription.

Dr. Baron and his team are excellent. I am impressed at the way they are able to do both a complete... exam and convey so much helpful information in one visit. But the best part is that every person in the office is both exceptionally professional and caring. Couldn't ask for better care.
