Why Sunglasses Should Be a Year-Round Essential
When people think about sunglasses, they often picture sunny beach vacations or summer hikes. But here at Focused Eye Care, we’re on a mission to change that thinking. Whether you’re walking your dog in Lakeville or heading to brunch in Farmington, MN, sunglasses are a critical part of your everyday eye care—in every season.
As your neighborhood optometrist near you, we’re all about protecting your eyes and helping you see the world clearly and comfortably. Let’s talk about why sunglasses near you are more than just a fashion statement.
UV Protection Is Not Seasonal
UV rays don’t disappear in the winter—in fact, snow reflects sunlight and can intensify exposure. Prolonged UV exposure can increase the risk of cataracts, macular degeneration, and other long-term eye health issues. A good pair of sunglasses with 100% UVA/UVB protection can help safeguard your eyes year-round.
Prescription Options That Fit Your Life
If you wear eyeglasses, you don’t have to sacrifice clarity for comfort. At Focused Eye Care, we offer prescription sunglasses that blend seamless vision correction with sun protection—perfect for everyday errands or weekend adventures. Whether you’re driving, biking, or just relaxing outside, we’ll help you find a style that works with your prescription and your personality.

What are the benefits of polarized sunglasses?
Polarized sunglasses contain a filter that reduces glare by blocking certain kinds of intense, reflected light. The optometrists at Focused Eye Care recommend polarized lenses for those who spend a lot of time outdoors, such as bikers, golfers, and runners, as well as those who spend a lot of time on the water fishing or boating.
If you struggle with the glare from water and puddles when you’re driving, polarized sunglasses may be able to help.
If you’re looking for sunglasses that can truly protect your eyes, contact Dr. Sollom or Dr. Schorn today. Schedule your appointment by calling the office or booking directly online.
