Although it can be easier to feel the impact of sun in the summer, UV radiation is always present and can be even more damaging during colder months when adults and children stop wearing UV protection. While the UV index is highest in the spring and summer, it can still reach moderate to very high levels in the fall and winter.

Industry experts say fashion eyewear has moved towards chunky, plastic frames in bright colours – much like the look favoured by stars such as Gwen Stefani.
The wayfarer geek glasses made famous by Leonard in the hit TV show The Big Bang Theory were very in at the moment.
Cat eye frames in different colours, styles and textures were also popular. Fashion can be fickle, what’s old can be new again – and eyewear is no different. Eyewear today is designed to be daring and bold.
While the trend appears to be moving away from the lighter and smaller look to a heavier look, the possibilities are extensive.

In the 1950s, thick horn-rimmed and cat-eye styles ruled, while the latter part of the ’60s saw a move toward circular, more delicately-framed models like those worn by John Lennon. Then came the headlight-sized lenses of the ’70s – favored by former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis – and the ’80s, when trendy four-eyers liked to bedazzle their massive glasses.
In the early 20th century, popular styles included a tortoiseshell frame with large, round lenses favored by silent film actor and comedian Harold Lloyd, whose photos and movies ignited one of the nation’s first Hollywood celebrity-driven fashion crazes.
When it comes to spotting future fashion trends, hindsight is often a good place for a designer to start.
So, what’s hot in spectacles for fall 2013? An edgy new twist on the lorgnette, perhaps?

Maui Jim has debuted two new, tech-updated sunglasses, the Kolohe and Kawika. The styles are based on some of the first designs ever created by the company. Vintage details are what make both of these sunglasses trend-worthy thanks to the fine filigree-scrolled silver/nickel temples and nose bridges on thin, lightweight nylon frames. Both frames come with adjustable silicone nosepads and traditional hinges. Both frames feature MauiPure lenses, a non-glass lens that is ultra-lightweight, as well as scratch- and impact-resistant, with up to nine layers of glare-cutting, UV-eliminating and color-enhancing technology. The company’s patented PolarizedPlus2 lens technology and bi-gradient mirrors are also available and both styles are protected with waterproof and oleophobic coatings. MauiPure lenses are not available in prescription; however, the Kolohe frames can accommodate Maui Jim’s authentic prescription lens materials: Maui Evolution or polycarbonate. www.mauijim.com

Rates of short sightedness among young people have soared because of smartphones, a leading laser eye surgeon has claimed. David Allamby, Founder of Focus Clinics, says there has been a 35 per cent increase in the number of people with advancing myopia (short sightedness) since the launch of smartphones in 1997. He has warned the problem could increase by 50 per cent in the next ten years.
Mr Allamby said: ‘If things continue as they are, I predict that 40 to 50 per cent of 30-year-olds could have myopia by 2033 as a result of smartphones and lifestyles in front of screens – an epidemic we call screen sightedness.
