protecting your eyes
Eye Health
We are not just in the business of performance. We are in the business ofeye health. After all, the best way to enhance your performance in the long-run is to protect your most important performance asset—your vision.
UV Protection
UV rays can lead to serious health issues including sunburn of the eyes, cataracts, macular degeneration and cancer.
All RIA sunglasses protect against 100% of harmful UV rays—even our clear lenses. Poor quality lenses that do not block UV rays damage the eye even worse than not wearing sunglasses, as the eyes are dilated due to the shading of the tint and thus allow more rays to hit the pupil.
Skin Cancer
5% to 10% of skin cancer occurs on the eyelids and around the eyes. Always protect your eyes outdoors with sunglasses, even in overcast conditions.
Our frames offer enhanced peripheral light coverage so you can play confidently knowing your protected.
Eye Comfort and Glare
The sun’s brightness and glare interferes with comfortable vision and the ability to see clearly, causing squinting and your eyes to water. Eyestrain can also lead to headaches.
All RIA sunglasses have our anti-reflective technology without interfering with depth perception, giving your eyes the best experience possible on the court so you can avoid eye fatigue and squinting.
Impact Protection
~30,000 sports-related eye injuries are treated in U.S. emergency rooms each year, and 90% of those injuries could have been prevented by wearing the right protective eyewear.
Our eyewear features shatterproof lenses, keeping your eyes protected from straight-on and peripheral impacts. Your vision is your greatest asset to your performance and worth protecting properly.
