Sunglasses
New Zealand's sun and ultraviolet rays is one of the strongest in the world. Excessive UV exposure may cause lumps to develop on the whites of your eye (pingueculum/ pterygium) and other eye conditions including cataracts and age-related macula degeneration (AMD).
Sunglasses are therefore necessary in protecting your eyes and come in a variety of options.
Prescription sunglasses
Most don’t realise that many sunglasses can be made to incorporate your prescription into them. That way, you’re getting the necessary eye protection in all light conditions, every day and enjoy the benefits of clear vision.
Right now at Frith and Laird we have a promotion for prescription sunglasses. Purchases any clear pair of glasses and you can get a complete pair of prescription sunglasses (single vision or progressive lenses included) as your second pair from $249*

Polarised lenses
Polarised lenses reduce additional glare from reflective surfaces such as wet roads, water, snow and buildings. This makes a great option for those spending a lot of time driving or on a boat/ beach.
