The sunshine is finally making an appearance!

Did you know UV rays can damage your eyes as well as your skin?

A good pair of sunglasses should:
✔ Block 100% of UVA and UVB rays
✔ Provide comfortable, glare-free vision
✔ Protect your eyes all year round—not just on holiday

Pop in and we can help you find the perfect pair to keep your eyes protected in style.

This week is World Retinoblastoma Awareness Week

Retinoblastoma is a rare childhood eye cancer, but early detection can save sight and lives. Look out for signs such as:

A white glow in the pupil (especially in photos)

A squint that does not go away

Changes in eye appearance

If you notice anything unusual, trust your instincts and get it checked.

Regular eye examinations play an important role in protecting your child’s vision.

With here, it’s a great reminder to protect yourself from UV exposure, especially as we spend more time outdoors in the brighter, longer days ☀️

Sun safety isn’t just about your skin, your eyes need protection too. UV rays can cause dryness and glare, and over time may lead to more serious issues. Even on cloudy days, UV levels can still be high.

Simple steps can help:

✅ Choose sunglasses with full UV protection
✅ Wear a hat for extra shade,
✅ Limit time in direct sunlight during peak hours
