Sunglasses - Cock A Snook At The Sun
Richard Dornell
In a recent online poll a large number of people were asked what they couldn't do without when going outdoors on a sunny day. The answer with the highest percentage was 'sunglasses'! When King Nero of Rome used rubies and emeralds to look through at the Gladiators fighting for their lives in the Colloseum, little did he realize that the jewels in his hands would become the precursor of the most well known outdoors accessory in centuries to come.
Only now, sunglasses are more than an accessory, they are a bare necessity. What with the pollution and the sunlight falling harsher on the earth, you need something to shield the most fragile part of your body - your eyes - from damaging UV rays and all the dust and grime. An especially useful thing to have, "glares" are inevitably a fashion accessory as well, made popular by movie and pop celebrities sporting super - brands like a RayBan or a Gucci.
Several global companies manufacture and market shades today; one of the top most being Bausch & Lomb. Bausch manufactures a variety of sunglasses to suit different ranges and preferences. Designer shades cost more but are a very coveted fashion accessory and Gucci, Prada and Versace are hot property in this segment. If you don't feel like spending a bomb on designer ware, there are a whole host of other brands that offer very stylish and affordable sun - shades.
Most shades use lenses made of high-resolution plastic, glass or polycarbonate. Glass shades are the best quality, though if it's just for a few days at a beach resort, you can try other qualities. The best and the easiest place to buy glares is the Internet where you can window shop, look for the best rates and buy, all without ever having to move from your chair.
