PROTECT OUR CHILDRENS' EYES
Sunglasses are not "toys" or novelty items, but serve an important fuction- protecting our eyes from harmful uv rays. The cumulative effects of longterm exposure to such rays can contribute to the following:
cataracts, macular degeneration, photokeratitis, ptergium, as well as skin cancer around the eyelids.
Children must wear quality sunwear with polycarbonate lenses that provide 100% UVA&UVB protection.
Eyes Cream Shades styles are fun, comfortable , and trendy...... Here are what a few of our customers have to say about the importance of kids wearing adequate sunwear.................
( Faith Smith - Founder, Eyes Cream Shades, Inc - " The Kids Sunglass Expert")
"I think that parents understand the importance of 100% UVA&UVB protection, but they need to know that lenses must be polycarbonate, and not plastic."
Amy Reasoner; Eyes 4Kids, San Diego
" I prescribe Eyes Cream SHades for all my younger patients because you're never too young for protection from the sun."
-Dr Quinton; Henderson, Las Vegas
"It is important to start early in protecting the human eye from excessive sunlight. Therefore, parents should urge children, even young ones, to wear sunglasses. Remember, radiation effects are long term and accumulative. Start the protection early in life to help prevent cataracts and sun damage."
- Malcolm R. Ing MD, Professor and Chair of Ophthalmology, John A Burns School of Medicine, University of Hawaii
"All kids need to be wearing polycarbonate lenses in their sunwear. We have carried the Eyes Cream Shades line virtually from when they began."
- Robert Silva, A Child's View, Mission Viejo
"Ultraviolet radiation has been implicated in cataract formation and macular degeneration. It is estimated that 80% of a child's lifetime sun exposure occurs before age 18. Sunglasses are useless unless children wear them. Well fitting, good quality and comfortable children's sunwear should be an absolute priority to reduct the ocular effects of ultraviolet radiation later in life."
