Should a baby wear sunglasses? Babies’ and children’s eyes need especially careful protection from harmful sunlight on hot summer days, because their eye protection is low: a child’s pupil is wide, the lens is crystal clear, and they also tend to look up more than adults. Children have a higher risk of vision damage caused by excessive sun exposure.

Do regular dark lenses protect babies’ eyes as well? It is not the dark glass that protects the eyes from sunrays, but the UV protection. Wearing sunglasses with just tinted lenses and no UV protection is extremely dangerous for the eyes, as the eyes’ natural defense mechanisms: squinting and pupil contraction, do not work properly with dark lenses. As a result, much more UV radiation can enter the eyes than if not wearing sunglasses.
