Hynes Optometrists

Great fun was had by everyone  trying on the different sunglasses from the Maui Jim and Serengeti collections.  The sun was a tad shy on the day, but being a bright day gave everyone who attended, the opportunity to see the difference in clarity and colour looking through polarised lenses.  

Protecting our eyes from harmful UltraViolet radiation is important for the health of the eyes - research has shown that UV damages the conjunctiva at the front of eye, causes cataracts and may increase macular degeneration.

We are encouraging everyone to wear sunglasses - the earlier we start the better.  So all parents out there - get your young people into the habit of wearing sunglasses now.
