cosmetics, general purpose, special use sunglasses, these standards include
limiting the transmission of UVB and UVA (the two UV damage eyes), common mode,
cosmetic model allows the sun lens transmission up to 30% UVB eye-catching but,
must stop at least 95% of the UVA, and the special purpose UVB and standard
models - Sunglasses for climbing, skiing and other - is the most stringent, the
model must accord with the standard UVB filter out at least 99%, said:" consumer
reports.
How to implement ANSI Standard Test of the brand? "Consumer report"
found, the vast majority of sunglasses very good performance in the market
today. In the past, many have failed to block ultraviolet rays, causing
extensive expansion of students, so that harmful radiation more into the eyes.
Fortunately, the improvement in design has eliminated the problem.
"In the
choice of lens, you don't go high-tech, comfort and versatility. Polarized
lenses, thereby reducing the reflected glare, especially can be used to drive a
neutral shadow lens, uniform is a good all-round performance. A gray tone, or
