Should a baby wear sunglasses?

The eyes of babies and children need to be especially protected from harmful sunlight on hot sunny summer days because their eyes have low protective abilities: a child’s pupil is wide, the lens is crystal clear, and they tend to look upwards more than adults. Children are at a higher risk of eye damage from excessive sunlight exposure.

Do regular dark lenses also protect babies’ eyes?

It’s not the dark lens that protects the eyes from sunlight, but UV protection. Wearing glasses with simply tinted lenses without UV protection is extremely dangerous for the eyes, as the eye’s natural protective functions: squinting and pupil contraction, do not activate with dark lenses. As a result, significantly more UV exposure reaches the eyes than when not wearing sunglasses.
