It’s not clear who started the ‘sunglass’ trend or when it came into vogue. It could be a lovely fashion who sported huge sunglasses and made it a fashion statement. Or, it could be in any one of those cowboy model movies where Ray-Bans glinted in the afternoon sun and added oodles to the charisma of the character. In any case, sunglasses as fashion accessories has arrived big in times, and they are here to stay!

From experience, you might have learnt that there are certain sunglasses that befits you well. But wearing the right sunglass is not a hard task That is why so many people, stars included, go for a variety of sunglasses.

Well, you need something that suits the conditions of the place you will be visiting. If you want people to appreciate the beauty of your sunglasses, you had better be in style-which means you have to keep revamping your collection.

The greatest advantage of buying sunglasses is cost effectiveness. You can easily buy several pairs of high quality sunglasses for very little. And if you happen to make your purchase from a source that sells wholesale, you can further benefit from the great prices that are on offer.

In the past we wore sunglasses only to protect from sun shine but today we call ‘shades’ for sunglasses which can be used for sun shine,computers and sports too. We have to ware shades because it is very good way to protect from ultra violet rays.

“When you buy shades you must think about the quality of lenses because it has much more advantage to reflect light. High quality lenses have to be made crack for sun. Before you buy shades it is not compulsory to check your eyes from eye doctors unless you have sight problem” said Chairman of Wickramarachchi Opticians, Mihira Wickramarachchi.

Branded shades are very expensive .So majorities of people in Sri Lanka do not wear shades. But in people who live in India and European countries wear shades as a habit. It is a fashion for them. D&G, Vasagi and Vog are the high quality lenses which are produced in Italy.

Fashion of shades are changing time to time. Now the fashion is crystal shades with colours. Without shades at the end of the day people who work with computers and move in sun shine areas get tired because of ultra violet rays. So it is useful to wear the right kind of shades.
