For people with myopia, don’t you especially want to take off your myopic glasses and put on a stylish pair of sunglasses when driving in the sun or traveling outdoors in summer? But if you take off your myopic glasses and only wear sunglasses, you can’t see things clearly in front of you! You can’t do without myopic glasses, but you also want to wear sunglasses. How can you have both? How should myopic people wear sunglasses? As a professional optical frame supplier, industry insiders have provided five solutions:
Contact Lenses + Sunglasses
Notes: When choosing contact lenses in summer, it’s better to select those that are not easy to dry, preferably monthly disposable ones.
Advantages: Once you put on contact lenses, you can match them with any stylish sunglasses you like, it’s simple and convenient.
Disadvantages: Not everyone is suitable for wearing contact lenses, and there are more restrictions when wearing them.
Suitable for: Myopic people who are used to wearing contact lenses.
Myopic Glasses + Sunglass Clip-Ons (Non-Prescription Lenses)
Notes: The selected clip-ons should fully cover the entire myopic lenses.
Advantages: Economical and practical, easy to use. When not in use, you can put the clip-ons in the storage box in the car, which won’t take up much storage space.
Disadvantages: There are very few style options for clip-ons, and they may not match the wearer’s original myopic glasses well.
Suitable for: Myopic glasses wearers who don’t care much about appearance and only need sunshade occasionally.
Myopic Overtopglasses
Notes: Myopic overglasses refer to a pair of sunglass cover lenses that perfectly match the frame shape of the myopic glasses. They are attached to the myopic frame by clipping or magnetic adsorption. When you enter an indoor space, you can take off the cover lenses, and it remains a regular pair of myopic glasses.
Advantages: They perfectly match the frame shape of the myopic glasses, with a sleek and elegant style. It’s hard to tell there are two layers of lenses from a distance.
Disadvantages: A single pair of overglasses has the weight of two pairs of glasses, which may cause a little discomfort to the wearer. If you choose frames and lenses made of lighter materials, the price will be relatively higher.
Suitable for: Myopic people who can accept the style of overglasses.
Photochromic Lenses
Notes: These are myopic lenses made of materials that change color when irradiated by light of an appropriate wavelength, and revert to their original color when the light source is removed.
Advantages: They can change color freely according to the intensity of light, and one pair of glasses can easily solve the problem.
Disadvantages: Photochromic lenses have a limited range of prescriptions. For high prescriptions, the lenses are thicker and heavier, and the color-changing effect is also not good.
Suitable for: Myopic people who like to wear photochromic glasses.
Prescription Sunglasses(Rx Sunglasses)
Notes: The best choice is to customize a pair of stylish and good-looking prescription sunglasses according to the wearer’s actual prescription. Combining the appearance of stylish sunglasses with the function of myopic glasses, you can become a fashionista in seconds.
Advantages: Stylish and good-looking.
Disadvantages: Need to switch between glasses. You use the sunglasses when doing outdoor activities and switch back to your original glasses when entering indoor spaces.
Suitable for: Fashionistas, and myopic people who often participate in outdoor activities or drive.
