Eyeglasses.com Highlights Summer’s Hottest Sunglasses

Summer’s here and Eyeglasses.com is bringing the shade with an inspired selection of sunglasses as the company recently celebrated National Sunglasses Day on June 27^th and the beginning of summer!

“The purpose of National Sunglasses Day, besides a great excuse to go out and buy a pair or three, is to remind people about the importance of protecting your eyes from the sun’s damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays,” said Eyeglasses.com Founder/CEO Mark S. Agnew.

“By regularly exposing your eyes to solar radiation without proper protection, you run the risk of developing cataracts, eye cancer and macular degeneration down the line. A good pair of sunglasses is not only fashionable, it’s a healthy investment in your future.”
