Why do you wear sports sunglasses when doing outdoor sports?
When doing outdoor sports in the hot summer, you need sports sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun. So why do you need to wear sports sunglasses?
1) Protect eye health
Ultraviolet rays can cause long-term damage to the eyes. They can penetrate the cornea and lens and directly reach the retina, causing damage to retinal cells and may even cause eye diseases such as cataracts and macular degeneration. When doing outdoor sports, the sun is strong and ultraviolet radiation is particularly severe. Therefore, wearing sunglasses can effectively block ultraviolet rays and protect eye health.
2) Reduce glare interference
Glare is caused by strong light reflected from the sun, water, snow, etc. It can make people feel uncomfortable in the eyes and even cause temporary blindness, which is very dangerous for athletes. The lens design of sunglasses can reduce the interference of glare, make the field of vision clearer, and improve the safety of sports.
3) Anti-wind and sand, anti-insect, anti-branch
During outdoor sports, foreign objects such as wind and sand, insects, etc. can easily enter the eyes, preventing branches and leaves from hurting the eyes, causing discomfort or even injury. Wearing sunglasses can play a certain protective role and reduce the possibility of foreign objects entering the eyes.
4) Appearance
In addition to the function of protecting the eyes, sports sunglasses are also a fashion accessory that can highlight the wearer's personality and style, and make the photos more outstanding.
5) Stability
Sports sunglasses are more stable than ordinary sunglasses and myopic glasses. When running outdoors or cross-country, the body vibrates a lot. If you wear ordinary glasses, you have to hold them frequently. I believe everyone has had this experience.
