Golf Sun Glasses – The Sporty New Trend In Golf That May Also Be Healthy For You!

If you watched the Masters this year, you would have noticed Zach Johnson wearing some very fashionable glasses. And he isn't the only golf player who is adding golf shades to their list of must haves on the course. Sporty eye wear can be seen on the faces of Tiger Woods and Brett Wetterrich.

Why are so many professional golfers turning to eye wear to cover their eyes?

It is mostly due to more players being educated about possible damage from the sun.

Because golf is played for such long hours at a time, all spent underneath the sunshine, there is a good chance that eye damage can occur in time. In fact, nearly 30% of men and women over the age of 60 have vision impairments due to some light. As the age bracket climbs, this percentage rises.

If you are currently playing off without any protective gear for your eyes, consider investing in some specific golf shades and golf sunglasses that will not only protect your eyes from sun damage, you can also rest assured knowing that when you hit old age, golf will still be a sport you can enjoy as a result of taking care of your health early on.
