As you can only imagine,National Sunglasses Dayis one of our favorite holidays at Roshambo! Not only does it let us show off our colorful sunnies and adorable customers, but it also highlights the importance of wearing sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun's harsh UV rays!
Pediatric optometrists warn that most of the lifetime ultraviolet (UV) damage done to a person’s eyesoccurs during childhood,and the risk for retinal damage from the sun’s rays isgreatest in childrenless than 10 years old.That's why we protect those little peepers with our polarized lenses, which reduce glare and eye strain while still delivering 100% UVA/B/C protection!

Our eyes face daily exposure to sunlight, screens, and environmental stressors. From UV radiation outdoors to blue light from digital devices, modern life places new demands on eye health. The right protection—such as UV-blocking sunglasses, blue-light filtering lenses, and smart screen habits—can help reduce eye strain and support long-term vision comfort. This guide explains how different types of light affect your eyes and how to choose effective protection.
Prescription sunglasses have transformed from simple tinted lenses into advanced vision solutions that combine clear sight, UV protection, and modern style. Today’s options include polarized lenses, photochromic technology, and lightweight high-index materials for comfort and performance. This article explores how prescription sunglasses evolved, what innovations shaped them, and how to choose the right pair for everyday use.
Modern lenses do more than correct vision—they protect your eyes. Specialized lens coatings such as anti-reflective, scratch-resistant, UV-blocking, and blue-light filters enhance safety and comfort in daily life. Whether driving at night, working on screens, or spending time outdoors, the right coatings can reduce glare, protect against damage, and improve visual clarity. This guide explains how different lens coatings work and how they contribute to safer, more comfortable vision.

If you have another pair of glasses that fit you well, you can look on the inside of the arms of your glasses for the measurement. You'll see a few numbers separated by squares or dashes, for example 41-16-100. Then you can pick your perfect Roshambo frame to fit!
Here’s what those numbers mean:
The first number is lens width. It will probably be between 40 and 60 mm and is usually followed by a square symbol.
The second number is bridge width, or distance between lens (DBL). It will likely be between 13 and 24 mm.
The third number is temple length. It’s probably between 100 and 150 mm.
