Deep Research

What 100% UV protection means for your eyes

  • Without full UV filtering, dark sunglasses are more hazardous than none at all, because the tint tricks the pupil into dilating and letting in more unfiltered UV; the 100% claim on these frames guarantees the lens chemistry handles the harmful invisible rays, not just the visible brightness.
  • A '100% UV protection' label in eyewear is understood to mean UV400: the lenses filter out all light with wavelengths up to 400 nanometers, covering the complete UVA and UVB bands, which is the internationally recommended threshold for preventing cumulative UV damage to the cornea, lens, and retina.
  • Economy plastic lenses sometimes require added UV inhibitors to reach 100% protection; the explicit labeling here means the polycarbonate or acrylic lens blend has either inherent UV-blocking properties or a treatment that ensures full coverage up to UV400, rather than relying on lens tint alone.
  • Polarization is a visibility feature — it cuts glare off flat, reflective surfaces like wet roads or water — but it does not affect UV safety; a lens that provides 100% UV protection without polarization still fully shields the eyes from the rays that cause cataracts and macular degeneration.

Q&A

2 answered
The listing says 'plastic and metal' but the description mentions a plastic frame. Which parts are made of metal?
The frame is primarily plastic, but the temples or hinge areas likely incorporate metal for reinforcement and durability, which is common for this style.
Are the lenses polarized and do they provide UV400 protection?
The lenses provide 100% UV protection, which blocks both UVA and UVB rays. Polarization is not specified for this model.
