Get summer ready with these hot eyewear looks for the whole family.
As we head into the hot Hong Kong summer, stocking up on kids’ sunglasses should be at the top of your list. Wearing UV protection sunglasses, especially at an early age, can help protect little eyes from the sun’s damaging UV rays. Did you know that kids’ eye lenses allow 70% more UV into their retina than the adult eye? Hence proper eyewear is extremely important for children, as well as adults, and can help to prevent certain issues related to the sun. As the eye lens cannot repair itself, prevention is the best cure, so start protecting little eyes as soon as you can! To help, we’ve rounded up several of this year’s favourite sunglasses for your entire family.
While safety is key, youngsters can still look super cute in their sunnies with these top picks of kids sunglasses in Hong Kong. Take a glance at this year’s hot looks for Sassy parents as well, along with stores for prescription sunglasses. While there are loads of cool options out there, we’ve whittled down the list to these faves. Enjoy fun in the sun with your sunnies at the ready!
