What Are Prescription Sunglasses

Prescription sunglasses combine your corrective eyewear power with UV-protected, tinted lenses — so you don't have to choose between clear vision and sun protection.

Understanding Power & Lens Types

Your prescription includes sphere (SPH), cylinder (CYL), and axis values for astigmatism, plus your pupillary distance (PD). These values determine how the lens is ground and fitted into the frame.

Single Vision Lenses

Correct one field of vision — either near or far — and are the most common choice for prescription sunglasses.

Bifocal / Progressive Lenses

Useful for people who need correction for both distance and reading, blending both powers into one lens smoothly.

Choosing the Right Frame

Not every frame supports every lens thickness or power range comfortably. Higher powers often look and sit better in slightly smaller, more structured frames.

Final Word

Prescription sunglasses are a genuine upgrade for anyone who currently switches between regular glasses and clip-ons or contacts. One pair, full correction, full sun protection.
