Choosing a sunglass colour you enjoy
Explore the view through the lens as well as the way the frame looks.
Colour changes your experience
Grey, brown, green and other tints can change the appearance of the scene. Personal preference and the task matter. Try the tint outdoors where practical, and check the exact product specification instead of assuming all lenses with the same colour name behave alike.
Darkness and protection are different
A darker lens allows less visible light through, but darkness alone does not establish UV protection. Ask for the UV specification and whether the lens is suitable for your intended use. Some very dark filters are unsuitable for driving.
Mirror finishes are another layer
A mirror coating changes the outward appearance and can affect the light reaching the eye. The visible mirror colour does not necessarily tell you the base tint. On-screen swatches are illustrative: lighting, displays and photochromic conditions can alter what you see.
Choose with real-life tasks in mind
Bring the glasses you already like and discuss driving, outdoor activities and prescription requirements. Check comfort and visibility in person. Dark sunglasses should not be used for night driving, and no ordinary sunglasses are safe for looking directly at the sun.
