But depending on the activities you’re planning, you may want to offer more consideration to the tint (color) and shade (darkness) of your sunglasses. The right ones can reduce glare and brightness, but also boost color perception and clarity, depending on the weather conditions and circumstances. So this summer, choose wisely to protect your eyes, enjoy your surroundings, and maintain good vision whether you’re lounging by the beach or summiting mountains. Safety firstBefore you start obsessing over the color of your lenses, put the safety of your eyes first. Grey is best at reducing brightness in extremely sunny conditions and offers the most accurate color perception.
