Heading on a winter sports trip? Sunglasses or goggles with UV protection are essential for skiing or snowboarding. Snow reflects sunlight, increasing glare and UV exposure, which can strain your eyes or even cause snow blindness.

We have a range of optical sports accessories available at Martin Smith Opticians to help you protect your vision.

Warm indoors, cold outdoors — winter temperature changes can cause your lenses to fog or smear more easily. Keeping a microfibre cloth handy and using an approved lens cleaner helps maintain clarity throughout the day. If your lenses are scratched or your coating is wearing down, we can help with replacements.
