Why sunglasses matter in Colorado

UV exposure increases with altitude, and long-term UV exposure is linked to cataracts, macular degeneration and growths on the eye. Quality sunglasses with full UV protection protect your eyes now and for decades to come, and polarized lenses make bright days far more comfortable.

Brands we carry

  • Maui Jim, known for their color-enhancing polarized lenses
  • Wiley X, for sport and safety-rated sunglasses
  • Bollé, for performance and outdoor wear
  • Plus sun styles from our independent frame makers

Made for your prescription

Frequently asked questions

Are polarized sunglasses worth it?

For most people, yes. Polarized lenses cut the glare off water, snow and roads, which makes driving and outdoor activities more comfortable and safer.

Can my vision plan help pay for sunglasses?

Many vision plans let you use your frame and lens allowance on prescription sunglasses instead of, or in addition to, clear glasses. We will check your benefits for you.
